This series offers tips, dialogue, critical thought and a sense of community around design education.Each webinar will tackle a different topic in design academia.

This panel covers:
- Hackathons, charrettes, design jams, they are all popular, executed and exist in the college experience: How do we feel about them? Are they beneficial? In the college environment, should we deliver less, challenge more? What balance of facilitation vs delivery should we be aiming for?

Andrew Boardman RGD

Manoverboard Inc.

I coach designers and creative professionals navigating change, supporting them in their work, lives and careers. I also write Dear Designer, a weekly love letter to designers, artists and those searching for what comes next. I also actively design and art direct with a focus on creating visual identities and websites for progressive organizations that seek tight, typographically-focused design. For 20 years I was the founder of Manoverboard, the first Certified B Corporation in Manitoba. During that time, I taught design at the University of Manitoba and Red River College, and co-founded a design scholarship that ran for five years. I currently serve on the board of the RGD and the Canadian Typography Archives. Lately I've been making odd but hopefully useful painted clay objects. Somehow I've also become a gym rat since moving to Montreal in 2024.
