Photos With High Cognitive Impact
Sometimes in my cognitive design class I will ask students to identify one picture that produces a big cognitive impact on them. I create a collage of the results and then we figure out as a group what is happening to produce the impact.
The exercises always produces a lot of energetic discussion and personal reflection on what makes the mind work. Occasionally we get some insights that are useful for project work.
Last time I did this a student suggested forming a Flickr group and throwing this task out to the crowd. Thought that was a great idea and found an existing group that fits the bill. Check out ThinkPhotos. Upload what you have and offer comments on why you think the others photos may be turning mental gears.
