Digital Media #3

Worksheet Description

This educational worksheet titled “Digital Media Design” engages students in critical thinking about the impact and structure of digital media. The first section of the worksheet prompts students to define key concepts related to digital media design. They are tasked with researching and writing down the definitions for ‘Addictive Design,’ ‘Feedback Loop,’ ‘Habit,’ and ‘Humane Design.’ These terms are crucial for understanding how digital media can influence user behavior and maintain engagement.

The second part of the worksheet provides a reflective exercise. Students are instructed to review a piece of digital media and analyze whether it appears to be designed to be addictive. They must provide reasoning to support their conclusions, encouraging them to apply their newfound knowledge of digital media design principles. This activity not only increases their vocabulary and understanding of digital media design but also fosters an awareness of how design can affect user experience and behavior. It’s an excellent tool for initiating discussions on responsible design and media consumption.
