I am a Communication Design student here, at CityTech. I am originally from Eastern Europe, but have been living in New York for the past 12 years. The photo I am sharing was taken at Lincoln Center last week. That moment reminded me how much I love this town! Considering all challenges of last year, it feels great to see New Yorkers enjoy public spaces again, safely. Professor, thank you for advancing the reading list. I have started On Writing Well, and found it a good read, three chapters in.
Some of my favorite recent authors are Don Norman ( “The Design of Everyday Things”) and Steve Krug ( “Don’t make me think” ). Both books explore the topic of usability and human-centered design. Language is an inseparable part of good design. Both are used to tell a story. I am always eager to learn more ways to tell a story, and look forward to improve my English Composition skills during this class.
Hope everyone enjoys the class, and fulfills the goals set forth!
Hi! Tatiana, I agree with you this city has many great places to explore and there’s always some new adventure to explore. Some could be Central Park, Statue of Liberty, Rockefeller Center, and much more.
Thanks for your spirited introduction and fantastic picture, Tatiana.
Welcome aboard!
