Capstone Review

Ailene is senior majoring in Industrial Design, and is designing a system that better supports international students in adapting to the culture in and around RIT. Please read her message below:

To provide a quick recap, I aim to design a system that better supports international students in adapting to the culture in and around RIT. My plan is to schedule a 1-hour review session over Zoom with you all sometime between March 8th and 12th, in which I will provide an overview of my system, explain each design component (course, guidebook, care package, rideshare/mentorship program), and facilitate a little role-play bit to test one of these components. This part is particularly catered to the international partipants of the group. We will then have a brief discussion/feedback session.

If you are interested in participating, please fill out the following When2Meet (in Eastern Time) and Google Form by this Wednesday (March 3rd). The Google Form is to choose a topic you'd like to hear me cover for the course demo.
