Past Present Future of Graphic CommunicationsGraphicsLHS
This document provides a brief history of graphic communications and printing technologies from prehistoric times to the present. It describes some of the earliest forms of graphic communication including cave paintings from 40,800 BC and Sumerian cuneiform writing on stone tablets from around 3500 BC. Key developments discussed include woodblock printing in China from 220 BC, the illuminated manuscript created by monks in the 5th century AD, the Gutenberg press in the 15th century, lithography in 1796, screen printing in the early 20th century, and modern digital technologies like inkjet printing, 3D printing, and the pixel, which revolutionized graphic communications.
Graphic design was formerly known as commercial art and involves combining art, business, and engineering principles to design everyday products. Graphic designers are responsible for the style, function, quality, and safety of most manufactured goods. Graphic design encompasses areas like corporate design, packaging, web design, and video game design.
This document discusses philosophy, critical thinking, creative thinking, and creativity. It provides an overview of how these topics relate to understanding why people act in certain ways and how to live a good life. Some key aspects covered include using logic and reason to solve problems, generating new ideas by combining facts, developing hypotheses, and engaging in high-order thinking skills like synthesis. The document also discusses qualities of critical thinking like being fair-minded and making informed judgments, as well as factors that encourage creativity such as having knowledge and an environment that supports culture and education.
Visual communication uses visual elements like images, photos, videos, and design to convey information or stories. It includes fields like graphic design, photography, film, and multimedia. Photographers capture events through pictures to record them for future generations. Graphic artists work in different mediums like sculpture, painting, drawing, and animation. Film involves recording live-action images or creating animation and visual effects.
Graphic design touches everything we see from billboards to websites. It combines visual elements like words, pictures, and charts to create something distinctive. Good design focuses on practical aspects like functionality but also understands why designs work on emotional and psychological levels. There are basic design theories and principles that apply across different mediums like balance, scale, and emotion. Successful designs employ principles like balance, rhythm, proportion, dominance, and unity.

Islamic art conveys the spirituality and message of Islam through timeless symbols rather than theological explanations. Its serene and structured nature leads to a correct understanding of Islamic culture. For Western audiences, Islamic art can represent a first step to understanding this influential yet misunderstood religion and culture. Islamic art uses repeating geometric patterns of circles, squares and lines that are expandable and two-dimensional rather than framed, reflecting Islam's stance against idolatry.

Secara beransur-ansur, tulisan Jawi diketepikan dan tidak lagi menjadi pengantar dalam pengajaran dan pemelajaran di sekolah.
Thinking is a voluntary cognitive process that we use to make sense of the world. There are different types of thinking, including critical thinking and creative thinking.
Critical thinking involves carefully analyzing and evaluating ideas, and using logic and evidence to form judgments. Creative thinking focuses on generating novel and unique ideas by making connections in an open and playful way.
Edward de Bono developed the "Six Thinking Hats" method to separate thinking into six colors or modes, including white for information, red for emotions, black for caution, yellow for optimism, green for creativity, and blue for organization and control.
This document provides a brief history of graphic design from cave paintings to modern times. Key developments include the invention of paper and the printing press, which reduced costs and increased demand for design. Photography emerged in the 1800s as a new communication tool for designers. Art movements like Arts and Crafts, Art Nouveau, Cubism, and Bauhaus influenced design styles. The development of new technologies and changes in society and culture continuously shaped the field of graphic design.
Islamic art is known for its architecture, with mosques and palaces as the most important buildings. Due to Koranic rules, Islamic art features little sculpture or painting but highly decorative architecture. The key parts of a mosque include the minaret, courtyard with ablution fountain, prayer hall facing Mecca, mihrab niche, and mimbar pulpit. Ornate arabic calligraphy, geometric patterns, and glazed tilework decorated the interiors, while architectural styles included horseshoe arches, lobulated arches, and mocárabe domes.
Anthropology is the study of humans, their societies, and cultures. It takes a holistic and multifaceted approach to understand all aspects of human experience. Anthropologists study humans geographically, historically, biologically, culturally, linguistically, and archaeologically. The goal is to gain a deeper understanding of humans, how and why we vary, our past evolution and societies, and to help avoid misunderstandings between cultural groups.
Critical, creative thinking involves the imaginative, unrestricted, rigorous examination of concepts. It is important to develop in students because creativity is the most crucial factor for future success, according to an IBM study. While it can be challenging to teach critical, creative thinking in classrooms, there are strategies that can help make it more motivational and experimental for students, such as questioning techniques, thinking keys, voluntary participation, and focusing on curiosity and connections over compliance and right answers.

Brainstorming is a technique used to generate creative ideas and solutions to a problem in a group setting. It aims to produce a list of potential solutions through discussion without filtering ideas. The benefits are that it pools the experience and creativity of a team to provoke new ideas. Brainstorming works best with groups of 5-10 people and takes 15-20 minutes. It involves writing down individual ideas on post-it notes which are then placed on a board and discussed to generate further ideas.

Mad*Pow webinar: Discovering Unmet Needs & New Solutions Through Participator...Mad*Pow
As organizations embrace design-led innovation, they sometimes struggle to reap the full value of human-centered design. Teams can find their interactions with customers limited only to the early research and late evaluation phases of the design process.
The work in between–when ideas are being generated–is often left to the internal team alone, and we risk missing the opportunity to discover some of the most valuable and customer-centered solutions.
Participatory design is an approach that invites stakeholders into the design process to better understand and meet their needs. It involves discovering unmet needs through activities where participants generate, reflect on, and evaluate potential solutions. Examples show that participatory design can uncover latent needs that users may not be able to articulate directly. The process includes framing questions and goals, planning generative activities, facilitating participation and documentation, and analyzing the results to identify insights and opportunities. Overall, participatory design aims to give stakeholders a voice in the design process rather than just asking them what they want.
This document discusses participatory design and how to conduct remote participatory design sessions during the COVID-19 pandemic. Participatory design involves stakeholders in the design process to better understand their needs. It describes common participatory design activities like generative collaging to elicit ideas and reflective card sorting to evaluate concepts. When planning remote sessions, the document recommends keeping the technology simple, designing effective recruitment, considering the at-home experience by sending materials, and being flexible with logistics like shorter sessions to avoid fatigue from long video calls. The goal is to effectively engage participants remotely to gain insights through adapted participatory design activities.
Participatory design is an approach that involves stakeholders in the design process to better understand their needs. It is not a single method, but rather a philosophy of including users' perspectives. The document outlines several participatory design methods including activities to narrate experiences, create ideas, and prioritize solutions. Examples of each type of activity are provided, such as journey mapping and prototyping for narration, and card sorting for prioritization. The benefits of participatory design are discussed as leading to better outcomes. Finally, the document walks through planning and facilitating a sample participatory design session using love letters, collages, and creating magic objects.

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,

We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals

• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
