OUGD401 - Mind Map

In order to firmly establish a topic for my context of practise essay I was required to produce a mind map detailing a range of potential routes in which I could take my essay. This was helpful as it helped to focus in more detail at which topic within my chosen title I would like to specialise in. From this I was then placed in a group with other students studying the same title in order to compare and discuss what topics we had placed on our mind maps and which was the most likely for use to choose. This was again really helpful as it allowed me to add more topics to my mind map that I had not thought of when individually completing this task. 


From this I have become undecided as to which topic I would like to focus on during the rest of this module. I have decided between focusing on capitalism and how other systems could be better than our current economic and political system in which I would look at groups such as the occupy movement. The other focus I feel I could take focuses on the Perl Harbour attack in world war 2 I could look at the use of propaganda used by the American and Japanese governments to see how they are similar or intact dissimilar creating an critical comparison between the two. 

I order to determine my specific research focus, I plan to discuss these two options with my contextual studies tutor and ask for feedback as to which focus could conceive the most interesting results in regard to my essay and body of physical graphic design. From this I will then complete the second part of study task 3 and begin with my extensive research into my chosen topic.
