From Class Assignment to Boulder Buses: Creative Non-Disposable Assignments and Unlikely Publishing of Student Work

March 3, 2023

Looking for an assignment that Chat GPT can’t do? To ensure that our students — and not AI technology — are demonstrating engagement with class material, we can design assignments that creatively utilize other types of technology. An example of this is, Green Suits Your Fashion, a climate-related non-disposable student project (an assignment that lives beyond the four walls of a classroom) that took place in the spring of 2021 with an upper-division undergraduate course, Creative Climate Communication, which focused on creatively communicating sustainable fashion. For this assignment, students were asked to visually communicate, within their circle of influence, how sustainable fashion can positively impact the environment and be aspirational to others. Learn more about the course and how student work broke out of the walls of CU Boulder into the greater community!
