Design Research Methodology
Proposal (Week 1 - Week 4)
Lecture 2
4/9/2018 (Week 2)
For our class this week, our lecturers gave us a lecture about problem statement, research objectives and research questions. She gave us some examples from our seniors' proposals. It should set an for our own proposal. After that, she gave us feedbacks for our proposals. Here are the slides for our Week 2 notes.
4/9/2018 (Week 2)
For this week, we need to add in research problems, hypothesis and problem statements in addition to our slides. After receiving some much needed feedback about my first proposal draft from Ms Hayati, she asked me to try and narrow down my search area because I'm not going to have enough time to finish my research topic within this semester. She said that my research area is well broad and in addition to that, there're many people out there have done research about my topic so she asked me to try to think of another research topic as a result.
As a result, I decided to change my topic to The Effect of Technology in Art & Design. Here are the slides in PDF format.
Feedback: Ms Hayati said that my proposal is still very broad in terms of the research area. She suggested me to research about the the negative side of technology in Graphic Design instead of Art & Design. This is because Art & Design is a very broad area and since I'm going to major in Graphic Design, she asked me to research about that.
11/9/2018 (Week 3)
For this week, there's no class because it's a public holiday so we were advised to finish up our proposal and submit it online for both our lecturers to give some feedback before finalizing everything next week. I continue to finish up my slides at home so that I can finalize everything before next week.
18/9/2018 (Week 4)
It's submission day for our research proposal this week. After receiving feedback from my lecturer, I'm finally able to finalize my proposal with the research topic Technology is Affecting Graphic Design. Here are the slides for my final proposal submission.

Lecture Notes
Lecture 1
28/8/2018 (Week 1)
To start off our first Design Research Methodology class. Our lecturer Ms Jinchi gave us a brief introduction to the subject itself. After that, she told us what do we need to expect from this subject because this subject will be a little bit "dry" as it requires us to do a lot of solid research. Before ending the class, she gave us a lecture about Research. Here are the slides for our lecture notes.

Exercise
28/8/2018 (Week 1)
For our first assignment in Design Research Methodology, we need to come out with a research topic. The topic that we need to research about needs to be within the area of design, art and visual culture. After finding our topic, we need to come out with a problem statement within the topic and then we need to write a 200-300 proposal about it. In the proposal, we need to state our problem statement, what the topic is about and explain on how are we going to proceed with our further research of the topic.
I chose a topic within the design area and titled it "Let Your Design Speak for Itself." My topic is about why designers nowadays are so afraid to design? I found out that one of the reasons why they are afraid is because of the ongoing design controversy. Designers are afraid to design because they don't want their design to fall into a design that is listed as "controversial design." Below is my embedded file for my proposal.
