Week 1: Overview
An explanation of the options for participants:
- Define your design project;
- If you're not sure what to focus on, review the Sample Scenario and the compilation of readings and resources drawn from other FLO - Facilitating workshops.
What will you design?
The Design Project is
the description and plan for a short unit of learning (2-3
weeks of online learning) that we ask participants to define in the
first 2 weeks of the workshop. More information about the process of defining and developing your design project can be found in the Design Project section of the Workshop Handbook..
Getting started
You may begin FLO-Design with a specific project in mind (and a learning audience). We ask that you be prepared to describe / define the scope of your design idea (at least in a first draft) by the end of Week 1 (in the Week 1 Studio Forum)
There will be opportunities to clarify your intended project with other members of FLO-Design and the facilitators.
If you're interested in working on your design collaboratively, you can connect with others through the Participants list or post a notice in the Week 1 Studio Forum.
If you don't have a design project topic in mind, spend some time reviewing the following pages. Contact your facilitators if you have more questions.
