Assumptions

Today I discovered that our Prototype Development lecturer had assumed that we were Level 6 students (semester 2, year 2 for my course) doing a Level 6 paper, rather than Level 5 students doing a Level 6 paper.  Because of this assumption, he'd been making us do things that were quite difficult for our current level of understanding.

Making an assumption about someone can be a dangerous thing.  You think they're like this, when they're really like that.  These little assumptions that we make can really impair the way we relate to other people.

I guess I learned something more than just prototyping today.

Thanks! I hope to resume regular updates once my semester resumes, because I usually write my posts while traveling to and from university on the train.
