Module 9 – Recap

This week we talked about teams, what makes an effective team, and working with clients. We did a group activity that looked at Functional Teams.  If you missed class, you should complete this activity. Watch the video and then complete the activity sheet. (send to me via email)

Working With Clients

One of the toughest parts of any project, particularly with a new client, is making sure everyone has the same understanding of the project. As my project team at Project Advance grew, and we took on larger scale projects, we developed a design brief document to help us and the client focus as we began our conversations about a project.

You can find a copy of our design brief template in the Module 9 Evernote Notebook, or here is the direct link to the Note containing that Word Document.

I’ve also put in a copy of the Take Home Exam design brief template..

As I mentioned in class, the take home final will consist of scenario/case of a ID project. You will play the role of the instructional designer who is approached by a client (me) to do a project. Your task will be to complete a design brief. It will be one that has been modified a bit, but it is based on the one we developed at Project Advance.
