| COMM 225 - ETHICAL DILEMMAS IN DESIGN |
|
This course applies design principles to analyze the ways in which design has faced ethical challenges. Design is not neutral: it is filled with ethical challenges, both explicit ad hidden. This is a hands-on course, and students will end the semester having created the design for a product or sen/ice which
serves or advances the needs and belief system of others, particularly in under served communities, using design thinking and human—centered design principles to hopefully avoid top-down and insulting design. Our designs will disrupt the status quo, by thinking outside traditional commercial development
and distribution of designed products. We will focus our design process from start to finish, creating designs with both ethical and pragmatic outcomes at their core.
