Unit Question:
==Why and how do societies convey persistent and important concepts clearly and quickly to all (or most) of its members? Here at AIS/D, how can we better communicate important big ideas (expectations, opportunities, events etc.) so that we are better able to participate in life in the community?==

Design Brief:
AIS/D is a very busy place. Almost always, there are special events (such as sports, concerts, plays) happening where the students and teachers are involved. There is even also community education, which are the activities made for the parents of AIS/D students. And it might be hard for the parents and the new people to find their way in the school. So, I will design a map that will lead them to wherever they want to go in the school. And, they will not have a hard time asking about or looking for it.

Design Specification:

 * must be readable ( clear, not confusing )
 * must include places where activities take place: the gyms, theater, assembly rooms, soccer field, turf, etc.
 * elementary, middle, and high schools should be pointed out
 * 1st, 2nd, and 3rd floors must be clear
 * must be easy to create

Signs Design Brief:
At AIS/D, new students and parents may get lost trying to find their way in the school. So, we will design some signs that can lead everyone in the AIS/D community around the school easily. The signs will be able to communicate to people important places around the school.

Signs Design Specifications:

 * must be safe
 * must be consistent
 * must be placed at the right height
 * must be clear/readable
 * must be attractive
 * must be spaced properly

Signs Guiding Questions:

 * how many signs?
 * which parts of the school?
 * which schools?(elementary,MS,HS )
 * how much? (funding)
 * location?
