The assignment is a half formed idea. Even this page seems unfinished? The assignment is also intimately tied to the
TheStructureOfTheClassHasBeenAbsolved.
In our pre-assignment meeting on 10.04.2020 we analyzed our current situations and brainstormed possible approaches to the curriculum that could resolve them. Among the things we were afraid were:
- a "business as usual" approach to classes and assignments
- difficulty with creating routines
- lack of motivation
- confrontation with the relevance of your work
- the question if learning can happen in design without a specific end goal (a final, designed "object")
- and crucially, the lack of community you all currently experience.
At the school, the communal aspect is cruciai. Most learning happens like that and the classes and the space are merely scaffolding making it possible.
