Case Study - Based on your Case Study #3 or beginning with another organism from the natural world that inspires you, build a project design that utilizes biomimicry examples from nature. Describe your vision, design (with goals and objectives), and technological/engineering solutions from nature that inspired you. Use the biomimicry Life's Principles to guide your ‘solution story' and 5 inform a project that will bring the natural and human ‘worlds' together. Tell a story by following simple questions: what, where, why, how, and when?
How can we learn from nature? Is there a recipe? Use art, images, diagrams, etc. to help illustrate your examples. This will be a preparation for your final project design presentation (1,250 to 1,500 words and supporting images in a power point format). Case Study #4 is a power point draft for your final presentation and should begin to incorporate graphics and visual communication.
Objectives
- Develop a clear understanding of biomimicry and how it may be used to find suitable solutions to human problems.
- Strengthen nature observation and connection skills through holistic (whole systems) pattern recognition.
- Learn and practice essential communications skills - verbal, written, visual and science translation - through individual exercises.
- Develop critical thinking and problem solving skills.
- Foster engagement in scientific discourse with audiences from non-scientific disciplines through real world experiences.
- Be able to apply natural processes to biomimicry.
- Be able to communicate effectively by presenting biomimetic designs/project ideas in a cohesive format utilizing images and written text, and also in group discussions with other students.
