Olin College Student Courses/Vital Ideation



Vital Ideation (for your everyday life) is a course that is being designed, run and taken by the students of Olin College of Engineering in Needham, MA. Vital Ideation focused on viewing the world through different "lenses" which could influence design and ideation.

The Fall 2009 version of Vital Ideation is modeled after the original Spring 2008 version of the course.

Logistics
Last time, Vital Ideation met during 12-1pm over lunch. This was awful - people rushed in from their ends-at-noon class and rushed off to their starts-at-one class. Perhaps VI should consist of inviting the speaker to dinner from 6-7pm and then speaking from 7-8pm. This seems a lot more compatible with student schedules.
