How We Read examines the first encounters of MA Graphic Media Design (MAGMD) students with graphic design literature and how their educational backgrounds shape their perceptions. The book presents an AI-facilitated comparative review based on data from 2023-24 MA GMD participants. It analyses three reading lists—Seminal, Disciplinary, and Positional; exploring the role of design literature, establishing historical and theoretical connections and personal engagement with these ideas.
Developed by Carlos Romo-Melgar and Bryony Quinn, this project stems from the Literature Review module at LCC, designed to help students shape their critical perspectives on design writing and its relevance to their practice.
