Dear students,
I understand that a number of you are finding it difficult to come up with creative, interesting and effective ways in which to present information for your posters. I encourage all of you to keep brainstorming, discussing, sketching, doodling your ideas and keep developing them in and out of class. I believe that each group can achieve their own interesting and effective results in the final poster but it requires pushing your ideas along, nurturing and refining them. You may also appropriate ideas from existing designs. You could find some inspiration in design books and magazines. Even some more journalistic magazines have very interesting and often playfully creative ways of presenting information. Try looking at Colors magazine for example.
Also, if you find something that you think is useful, why not share it with your classmates by posting it on your blog…
