Lecture

1. Phase 1: Project 2&3 Proposal -Collecting Information
2. Overview of Diagrams and Sequentially Based Graphics
   Built on the foundation of research, good information design:
   1. Provides a means to see what lies within
   2. Finds relationships
   3. Calls attention to things that might not have been visible in other forms
   4. And perhaps even determines the answer to a question.

Here is a look at a number of examples to get you thinking and inspired:
