I've been collecting pandemic era signs that nobody can be bothered to take down or remove. There's something grimly fascinating about this. Putting them up was urgent and important; removing them is nobody's job. How long will some of these hang around?
A tatty laminated sign that says: "This site is respecting social distancing. Please adhere to all guidelines on site." There are icons warning people to stay 2 metres apart, wash their hands, etc. A massive footprint on a pavement. Faded text warns people to keep 2 metres apart. A poster advising people on where to get help for domestic abuse during the COVID-19 pandemic. A sticker on a bench: "Safe seat. One person only at any time. Keep your distance even when seated."

Baltimore Design School Architecture teachers Ms. Zaeh and Mr. O’Harah joined Ms. Canal’s seventh-grade class to teach a lesson on isometric drawings. Students used dotted isometric paper to create multidimensional designs, including collages layered onto imaginary landscapes for their portfolios.

Man I don't want to have to write a 50 minute lesson plan about The Mismeasure of Man or the Tuskegee experiments but I'm having a hard time finding a curriculum relevant lesson on why we need to be cognizant of stereotypes and prejudices when we design our experiments.

Why can’t America design an organized, fair, and kind immigration system? Americans (including me) need a complete immigration lesson.
We must understand immigration to protect our immigrants.

These First Toys for Kids With Disabilities Have Universal Appeal
When you’re raising a child with a disability, learning difference, or a complex medical condition, you need to adopt a new mindset when it comes to fostering their development and finding the right tools to support it. In 2018, my daughter was diagnosed with a rare genetic deletion that causes a ra

if you watched it on Netflix, there's a feature called The Anatomy Lesson that goes into some of the design choices for the movie; it was really neat to watch

I put it like this....now I see why they made a promo of the card (well, besides the adorable art) Gran-Gran not answered asap will mess you up in the right deck design.
Gran-Gran {U} Legendary Creature — Human Peasant Ally Whenever Gran-Gran becomes tapped, draw a card, then discard a card. Noncreature spells you cast cost {1} less to cast as long as there are three or more Lesson cards in your graveyard. 1/2 Illustrated by Mizutametori

First looking at this card before: "Heh, this card is a cute design and a nice to have this character in the set though the card is allright"

Playing against the card a couple of time during streamer event:

Ok, Gran-Gran great.

If you want to create games that resonate with a wider audience, you have to take their tastes into account. In my career this was the big lesson of how different aspects of Vampire resonate with audiences and how to design for that. Design doesn't happen in a vacuum.

Let me give you a very important lesson on design: if you move fast enough, the universe won't notice.

Right now the game I'm designing is like most games I design: I don't think it will work. I'm 99% sure that it will explode. And like only 50% of that is fear and self doubt. BUT

By learning from other countries and adopting international best practices, California High Speed Rail was able to cut its costs by $14 billion and cut 70% of tunnels.

This is a big lesson for transit projects both in NY & around the US: start by learning from other countries.

Ian Choudri: Yes. When I came on board, like we looked at six or seven different areas of improvements and one of that was engineering of how we are building it comparable to the European and Japanese systems. And came to realize that as engineers, all the folks that were in the team being very conservative. They were going, "Let’s build it not that steep." And so we are going to do it as flat as we can. While that’s fun if you are in the desert, if you are going through Tehachapi or Pacheco Pass, you quickly realize you can't stay flat. So the decision was made to make it a little higher, because Europe is doing it, Japan has been doing it. Let’s not reinvent. That eliminated about 70 percent of the tunnels that we had to do. And that’s billions of dollars. Ian Choudri: I don’t blame anyone. These were not intentional mistakes. This was a lack of checking because we don’t have another high speed rail in this country. So we were using highway bridges or freight rail design concepts, which is all we know. And so we fixed it. It took us four months to realize that this is a big mistake and improve the cost structure. When we put our plan out, we said we saved $14 billion by optimizing cost by changing design standards and criteria, bringing them up to par with the European and the Japanese.

I agree with the hypothetical point, but wasn't this a lesson learned in design 5+ years ago? The newest cars all seem to have returned to making sure there are tactile ways for the most common things people adjust. Knobs are back.

They're photos of a beautiful woman, impeccably dressed. If the photos were promoting a school for modeling, fashion design, or photography, it would make perfect sense. But these photos have nothing to do with improving your credit rating.

You're welcome for the contextual understanding lesson.

#BiteSizeGameDesign Lesson 140: *Most* game mechanics are not subject to copyright.

The internet can be an unkind place. If you’re successful, people will look to “fast follow” your design.

If you make an homage to a classic, try to add something new or novel.
