1. Where & When ? Donna Quinn PowerPoint Presentation 6th November 2011

2. Where will your design entity be used, • and at what time? Anytime, anywhere On a bus, train, airplane. Waiting to meet someone, On a lunch break, Waiting in a queue, In the classroom, When relaxing in a favourite chair, When a parent wants to teach their child about the evolution of man and other important questions, In a university library, Wherever and whenever the reader chooses

3. For how long? It’s really up to the reader how long they’d like to read my book for in one sitting Hopefully at least 40 to 60 minutes when they are free from distractions or scheduled meetings A well written book could hold my attention for hours. And if I had to break from it to do something, I’d plan the soonest possible free time to finish it in a comfortable, distraction free area

4. How could you change the place that the entity is being used in?Broaden out from the individual reader, to something more public and interactive with a group of peopleI could create an online book club on my websiteThis brings the most important part of a book, its review, to a global platform where anyone can join in and give their opinionsI could encourage the founding of a kindle/eBook reading club in libraries around the country where people could physically meet, read and discuss my book face to face

5. How could you change and extend the time that the entity is being used for?Write and design a book that is as unputdownable as possible! If my eBook were to be distributed in classrooms or universities to be read as part of a curriculum The more people who get access to reading and discussing it with theirfriends and family, the more potential time it will be read and re-read
