Topic Exploration--SUSTAINABILITY
The definition of sustainability that has been pursue as “humanity has the ability to make development sustainable to ensure that it meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.” However, the definition of sustainability has go beyond the purely ecological terms. As a group, we are aiming to expend people's perception of sustainability toward other fields.
DURATION
4 weeks ( worked on this project once in a week)
TEAMmates
Preparation
Sustainability is a very huge topic We, as a team, wanted to widen audiences' perspective of sustainability from only toward environmental aspect to other fields like internet usage and social justice so we decided to separate our presentation into four parts for four of us. For the first two week was just researching our own topic and putting together in the same Keynote
Consolidation
After we all have our own topic research done, we gather together and presented our part to each other. My topic about sustainability was Internet Carbon Usage. I found a very good report to this topic so my part was ready to go. Tash's topic was material usage in technology field which was also solid. However, Tara and Jamie are tackling a bigger issue like misinformation online and socially media environment which are not commonly understood by public, hence we had some difficulties trying to merge their information into the big umbrella of sustainability in a way that is easy to understand. We had 3 meeting within a week for consolidating our content and presentation flow. We once though we can never make sense of our presentation flow because , luckily we figured it out eventually after rounds and rounds of communication and explanation to each other.
Workshop
The last stage was to coming up with workshop as activity after presentation. We first though about having it as a game. However, as I said before, sustainability is a such broad topic; any aspect of it could be a small game. We didn't want to only focus one area for workshop because that just didn't reflect all the content we had in the Keynote. We brainstormed some ideas in order to figure out what we need to do but that didn't went so well because all the idea was vague and we can't picture how it would look like as a workshop
Brainstorming ideas
After 30 mins brainstorming without getting result, we decided to map out how could we distribute the workshop time first and what are the things we need to cover during the workshop/ what we want the audiences to know. As we spoke out the things we want to convey, we were able to form the workshop piece by piece; wanted to provide a worksheet that can help audiences exam whether if their daily activity is green or not.
A list of things to do for workshop
We included three out of four ears from our presentation and asked some question to help the user assess their daily behavior.
Worksheet for Sustainability
Iteration
We did few user test with our classmates to see if this worksheet make sense. One of the classmate said she couldn't relate the check box from the right side with the scale from the left side; she didn't know she need to fill out the scale chart. Another classmate said we should have check boxes for the Digital Product because the question like "how many.." couldn't be answered by a check box. Other teammate said our naming was confusing as well. Based on all the feedbacks, we revised our worksheet and here is the final worksheet.(see the image below)
