This week you will have two tasks, please check for a second task by the end of the week. The focus of this week is (how to) Promote team effectiveness.
You will closely work with this excellent online resource: MindTools.com. Make sure to bookmark it, it will prove useful on many occasions.
Download the task below. Complete it and e-mail a copy to me (see e-mail in document). Upload the document to MyKangan (Moodle) and keep a copy of the completed task.
Today we will commence with student presentations on the 5 Classic Typefaces.
Make sure to understand the differences and to be able to visually distinguish between the typefaces. Use the image below as a reference:
Example of 5 Classic Typefaces Source: Designing with Type, J.Craig, I.K.Scala, 1971, 2006
You will receive a basic testing task. Please complete the task in 10min.
Next we will move towards Type as a tool of communication. Follow the in class presentation and perform the 2 tasks at the end (view the attached presentation for tasks).
This is a template for a business website found at TemplateMonster. It is interesting in the sense that it breaks up the main image as part of the navigation. The sound it comes with is annoying.
