Study Partner: Design for Everyone
Posted in: Uncategorized
Jennifer Thomas and Shawn Petersen are teachers at the Pacific Northwest College of Art Continuing Education program and co-founders of Study Partner. Although Study Partner’s website is somewhat confusing about the organization’s purpose, it seems to simply be about two designers trying to teach design in the most effective and engaging way possible.
Some of our favorite examples of new teaching efforts coming out of Study Partner’s Idea Lab include:
The Mobile Teaching Studio, a converted airstream trailer that could roll “onto Main Street one summer evening, holding open enrollment for workshops? What if your typography course was held under a canopy of old growth redwoods rather than fluorescent lights? What if school wasn’t a static place, but one that traveled where it was needed?”
