| Description (ECIAD) | Through Indigenous-centred critical readings, story-telling, presentations, class discussions, and student project work, students will develop a deeper understanding of challenges, techniques, skills, and contemporary discourses and how their design practices might counter, contribute, confront, or mediate rising issues. As a practice-based design study course, students will synthesize Indigenous concepts with design practices, resulting in projects such as written case studies, annotated process books and portfolios, curated exhibitions of work, self-published booklets/zines, information graphics/design, material studies and prototypes, or narrative architecture. |
