Session 8 - individual task 3

1) Emotional State: the background of this poster is warm colour (yellow), and the colour of squid is dark in colour, thus the background colour can protrude the squid. 2) Segmenting Principle: the information are segmented into different small paragraphs, thus readers can easily read through all the information. 3) Multimedia Principle: image and words are presented together instead of words alone. 4) Coherence Principle: all the images are related to the topic, extra image was not presented in this poster. 5) Redundancy Principle: redundant captions were not presented in narrated animation. 1) Segmenting Principle: Steps of typhoon formation are segmented into three steps. 2) Spatial contiguity: Position critical term (the eye) next to the image. 3) Signaling Principle: Key words are highlighted in red colour. 4) Multimedia Principle: Words are images are presented together.

Session 8-individual task 3

Re-choose the poster of squid. I would choose the third poster for following reasons: 1. The information on the poster is presented in short texts rather than words, which makes audiences learn better. 2. There are many images for comparing and know the specific size and living environment of squids, helping audiences learn better. 3. In terms of emotional design, audiences can have a good feeling of observing this poster because this image of squid does not frighten audiences, and this poster has an academic feeling to audiences. 4. Also, the color use in this poster is quite comfortable for audience. 5. The contents of this poster is much better than others because this one is more informative and practical. Re-design the PPT of typhoon.

The positioning of the critical terms next to the squid is spatial contiguity, which picture one failed to produce The critical terms are highlighted, which shows signaling effect The problem with the original picture I chose is that the geographical map contains redundant element in the form of the country's name Originally, there's a lot of text for the first slide, now removed extraneous words (coherence). Rearranged to signal key terms by red (signaling). In the second slide, there were redundancy as captions state what was being stated already within the captions of the picture. Now redundancy is reduced with simpl...
