She spoke about the impact research had on her novel and creative work. It was really interesting the topics she researched to complete this body of work.

Although this was a great talk from Sabba, I felt as though it didn't really give me the research tools I needed. We explored what research she did for her novel which was great and how these related to her but I didn't really take anything from this.

'The world is changing faster than any of us can understand.' - Chrissy Levett

Chrissy gave us an insight on what she has been doing and the positive impact she has made since creating this organisation. It really opened my eyes to how fast the world is changing in front of us everyday and how badly things are, almost going downhill in some aspects.

# data[].attributes.body
Many serious, alarming topics were covered in this elective. It reminded me that it is a choice. You have to want to change.

Chrissy went on to encourage us to watch 'Kiss The Ground.' An inspiring documentary where science experts and celebrity activists unpack the ways in which the earth's soil may be the key to combating climate change and preserving the planet.

I do think that we were given some great research tools in this talk and I learned a great deal about myself also in fact. Everyone has a knock on effect on the way things are ran and the planet. We have a lot of explaining to do. We as humans are responsible for a lot. I think we should all take accountability and change for the better.

I learned from this elective that even starting off small helps and can go a long way. Everything we do now can impact the future generations and it would be selfish to know that we could do something now to make a positive impact on the world later and not do something.

I love using LS:N and this talk just highlighted how great of a platform it is for research. It helped a lot having Alena Joyette go over the useful ways to use their website and tips on how to get the most out of LSN Global. I have also been inspired to use this now for my Big Ideas & Philosophies essay.

LS:N Global provides a platform to document consumer behaviour and vital trends in the industry to provide insightful information for business professionals to make appropriate decisions for the future of their brand.

PROS

It is extremely dense with information on global news relating to the fashion industry whilst also having other sectors such as food, health, retail, youth and travel.

The website is very visual and aesthetic.

It is set out almost like a blog. Even though there is a lot of information to digest, it is easy to read whilst also incorporating political values without it seeming too complex.

LS:N Global has a trend feature which is necessary, as a fashion student especially, to keep up to date with. The trends are also specific for example: macro/micro trends, design direction and trend tracking.

I enjoy how there are so many diverse articles to choose from and how the articles vary in how brief or detailed it is.

We were worried about the pandemic and it was a really negative time when instead we should have been focused on the new opportunities that are out there.
