[ideas] Science Methods Recipe Cards #11

Open joeyklee opened 8 years ago

I found these really nice postcard-esque recipe cards instructing people on how to make coffee using different methods of brewing (e.g. chemex, vs. frenchpress, etc). An image of the card I picked up is shown below.

I'd really like to make a deck of cards of different short-and-sweet methods that people do in their science. I like the idea of having a really beautiful image on the front, a list of materials, and then steps to completion. One example would be "how to quantify specific leaf area index" and the instructions on the back might show you some steps to do so. Or another example might be also be to explain concepts like, "how does eddy covariance work?".

Maybe then the deck could have a few nicely illustrated examples of "How to do X in this science" or "how does Y method work in this type of research".

Also, I think it would be great to do it in a style like my friend Shiori Clark's illustrations , so maybe I can reach out to her OR if Zannah has time, we can collab on this too... I also have some other illustrators in mind :)
