Week 11 Session: Studio: Design an Intervention

Workshop a real or speculative fix to one zero-sum system from the semester, ahead of committing to it for the final project

17 May 2027

Before the session

Draft one intervention into a system covered this semester — workplace overtime, credentialism, engagement farming, admissions, housing, any of them. A page is enough; specificity beats scope.

In the session

Studio format: work the draft against the room’s feedback, focused on whether it changes the incentive structure or just displaces the pain. Leave with a version you’d actually submit.

Afterwards

This draft is the direct starting point for the final project — bring the room’s feedback to it, don’t discard it.

The spec

What you bring to the session. Written so a reader can tell whether it has been met without asking you.
