Interpretive Sign Design                       by Dan Bowdoin


Goal
• Combine the skill of critical thinking and practicing math into a fun
  game that involves students working in groups.


Audience
• 6th grade middle school math students.


Message
• To convey the steps on how to play the fraction multiplication
  game through a series of images that represent each task. Provide
  ideas for student reflection during and/or after the game.
First Design
Intermediate Designs
Key Changes
1) I switched from using PowerPoint to Paint Shop
   Pro. Using the photo editing program allowed me
   to manipulate and control many additional
   features.

2) The entire layout was changed, real pictures used,
   a relevant title created, and body text was added
   (instead of just a series of questions).
Key Changes
1) In an attempt to make the pictures stand out
   more, I increased the size and made them a focal
   point of the design.

2) Placed the captions within the pictures, to treat
   them as secondary information on the game
   directions.

3) Developed a two column approach for my text
   body. This was dumped for a bit, but then brought
   back in later designs.
Key Changes
1) Contrast and Style were major focuses of this
   design. The style was meant to be more fun and
   game like (eventually I thought it was too hard to
   read).

2) In this design, only two font types are used.

3) Focused on bringing attention to my catch phrase.
Final Design
Key Changes
1) Simplified text choice for ease of reading.

2) Added lines to strengthen the alignment that the
   pictures had in relation to the text. Lines also
   connect with the fraction concept.

3) Moved pictures down, and also moved the title so
   that it was smashed against the top.

4) Changed color of caption text to stand by itself.
