OUGD601 - Research Led Discussion



OUGD601 - Research Led Discussion

During a critique, I asked my peers questions to confirm that a website was the right outlet to use. A website was agreed to be the best solution as all said a book was off putting, especially to young people who don’t have the time and who are predominately online anyway. It was also suggested to create an app as people use their smartphones just as much the internet nowadays. This discussion proved vey useful as I found that some people said they had a good understanding of art and design history whereas some did not. It was discussed that this idea would be suitable as all agreed that it can help people by informing their work. Furthermore, it was agreed that it would be useful for student designers too as it is important to understand, and as a tool to use. However, it was said that it must be simple and easy to use, because people look more towards the internet as you can specifically select what you want to look at, rather than finding it within a large art and design history book which can be intimidating by the volume of information in front of you.
