adv graphic design: Project Planning

We are in our first section of advanced graphic design which deals with project planning.  Students will be working on a term-long project of their choice this term.  The first thing they did was create a project proposal that tells me the idea that they came up with.  The next part of the project involves creating a timeline.  Students will make a list of all the components that they will be creating for their projects, then come up with a schedule that will let them finish their projects in a set amount of time.  The next part of the project will involve collecting resources that can be placed on a mood/project board.  This will be a resource that students can look to throughout the term to influence the direction they should go with the design of their project.  There have been some very good proposals turned in, and I'm excited to see how these turn out!
