Week 6 Tutorial: Claimed Space on a Moving Vehicle
Comparing transport's constantly-recalculated claimed space against Week 5's seat-saving, ahead of the Midpoint Crit.
31 August 2027
Activity#
On public transport, or recalling a recent trip, note every instance of one passenger annexing more space than their body needs — a bag on a seat, spread legs, a wide pole grip.
Record your reaction#
Note whether the behaviour changed as the vehicle filled up, and how quickly the person adjusted, if at all.
Reflection#
Compare this week’s bag-on-the-seat case to Week 5’s seat-saving jacket: state one way they’re alike and one way they’re different. Bring your strongest case study from Weeks 2 through 5 to the Midpoint Crit this week.
