(second attempt a plug) Involution Master Academy (Winter 2008) - Design Research Methods class

Registration is now open for the full-day Design Research Methods 
(http://involutionstudios.com/?p=108&cat=8) class that I'll be 
teaching. It's a full-day event on Saturday March 1, 2008 in at 
Involution Studios in Sunnyvale, CA.

This course will provide first-hand knowledge and training in core 
design research methods. At its root, design research emphasizes 
learning about people and using the insights gained to inform and 
inspire design. We will focus on exemplary models of what research 
is, what it looks like, its role in concept generation, and what it 
produces.


The Involution Master Academy recently released its Winter 2008 
semester for open registration. A post-secondary education program 
designed for mid-career professionals, Involution Master Academy 
focuses on direct, one-to-one interaction and training between the 
instructor and students. To ensure maximum interaction and an 
intimate educational setting, each course only accepts nine participants.
