Anthony Page is conducting an audit of Johnstown Lift, a community organization he discovered through a flyer. In his audit, he analyzes Johnstown Lift's website, pamphlet, and grant reporting. He finds that the website is well-laid out but some pages could be simplified. The pamphlet's front and back pages are effective but the second page is less appealing and could be improved with another photo or more eye-catching titles. The grant reporting page appears messy with many numbers and would benefit from separating lines. Anthony plans to interview people individually as part of his audit to get different perspectives and have interactive discussions. Overall, he believes Johnstown Lift is an amazing company and he is excited to help

The majority said they would follow Johnstown Lift on social media and consider volunteering with the organization if interested in community issues. Suggestions to improve the pamphlet included reducing lengthy paragraphs, better explaining the grants page, and including more information on how to get involved.

Talking up Sensemaking

Ana Barroso

The document discusses the origins of NextDesign's sensemaking framework called NextD Geographies. It explains that over many years of conducting sensemaking conversations with design experts, NextDesign sought to make sense of what they were seeing and hearing. They realized an ordering system would be needed to structure the research findings. Existing frameworks in design and other fields did not fully fit the research. NextDesign adapted concepts like complexity ladders and applied creativity models to create their own four-part framework - Design 1, 2, 3 and 4 - to depict different scales and types of design challenges from products to societies.
