Category Second Post s24

This post is going to ask you to consider issues relating to inclusion and diversity and your own projects (much as we have done in class for 2/21). This does not mean the project needs to be social justice-related. It means that you are considering an intentional and equitable approach to your work, which is essential regardless of your project or the field you are going into.

For this post, I’d like you to consider each the following questions (informed by the readings for Wednesday, 2/20, so be sure to consult it and your homework before you compose your post). You do not need to answer the questions as a bulleted list; you can have a narrative.

* What is the intention of your project? That is, what do you hope it will achieve?
* What impact do you hope it will have? That is, how do you hope that it is “lived and experienced in the real world in actual communities”?
* What are the best *and worst* case scenarios for the impact of your project? Be specific about possible exclusions relating to the worst case scenario(s).
* How *might* personal identities influence and/or inform how you approach design?
* What perspectives or lived experiences might be missing from your approach?
* What individuals or misrepresented communities might be missing your project?
* Considering who is missing and/or misrepresented, how will you attempt to make your project inclusive?
