Color makes meaning! We used 10 contrasting colors to help readers navigate the new resource, "Designing Inspiring Workshops and Courses in Transdisciplinarity: A Guide". Check it out: itd-alliance.org/resources/design-guide/ #Education #GraphicDesign #transdisciplinaryresearch

A stack of pages. The first one shows a diagram showing the flow of key areas for training design: Opportunities, Participants, and Setting and Logistics are grouped at the top. These three areas flow into Outcomes. Outcomes flows into another group of concepts consisting of Content, Method, and Agenda. These collectively flow into Delivery which flows into Evaluation & Follow-on Steps. Behind this page, the colorful edgest of 10 additional pages fan out behind it.
