The document discusses the design process for creating recipe cards. It describes choosing a template with a large picture and smaller picture, with most of the information on the front for ease of reading. Testing found audiences preferred more instructions over pictures. Images were a mix of original photos and stock photos due to challenges capturing all photos. The final design featured bright colors and fonts to catch attention, with key information like ingredients and nutrition prominently displayed. Feedback helped add more color to engage passersby. The design reflected vegetarian branding with green and other colors from the Vegetarian Society logo.
We designed a set of recipe cards for The Vegetarian Society that met their requirements. The cards feature The Vegetarian Society logo and website, recipes, ingredients lists, and a consistent color scheme and fonts. We selected quick and easy vegetarian salad recipes to match a summer theme. A bright color scheme and fonts like Orange Juice and Impregnable that are clear but stylish were used. Feedback from audiences indicated a preference for easily readable nutrition information, so that was included. While photography was mixed, the final cards met the key goals but could be improved with more visual interest on the fronts.
The Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain in the late 18th century and spread around the world. Key innovations like the water frame for cotton spinning and James Watt's improved steam engine drove this period of socioeconomic change. Britain was well positioned for industrialization due to political stability, banking, raw materials, and global trade and markets. Factories proliferated and drove urbanization as many moved to cities for work. While industry and technology advanced greatly, working conditions in the early factories were often difficult, with long hours and child labor. The Great Exhibition of 1851 highlighted Britain's role as an industrial leader.

Digital assignments and assessments can be keys to student success by being relevant, valuable, and difficult to cheat on while incorporating rich media and requiring higher-order thinking. Educators should have students interact dynamically with content using engaging tools and challenge their approach to learning. Assignments should allow students to demonstrate learning through collaboration and the use of tools like videos, podcasts, and infographics. Assessments can require deeper understanding when digital and take various forms beyond writing to show mastery in original works. Educators should start by reviewing current assessments and reworking questions to focus on desired learning outcomes while avoiding cheating.
