Assignment 2 - Methods of Design

1. Give each student (or 2/3 students) an arboreal species to practice on.

2. It is possible to carry out this activity, both in vivo (in the field, under a microscope, in the laboratory) and using photographic material.

3. Each student will have to find, draw, and describe all the patterns he can find, in the different plant parts and in the different scales.

4. The results of the individual searches are reported in a group, to compare and comment the collected data.

5. The same practice can be replicated with herbaceous plants.
