What does it means for something to be "in transit"? Can it be more than simply getting from point A to point B in our day-to-day life?

We will take a look at some of the most interesting existing and speculative transit systems around the world. 

Instructions

Part 1:
Individually look at the transit examples in the Resources tab above. As you go through these precedents, note how the system works, how it's powered, how many people could be moved by it, and what infrastructure it requires.
Individually or in Paris, choose one of the transit systems to focus on.

Part 2:

Individually or in your pair, create a slideshow (int he Responses tab above) that contains the following information about your transit system:

• Where is it located? Is this method used elsewhere in the world?
• How does the transit system relate to the area and its unique setting/environment? (write 2-3 sentences)
• What is awesome vs. awful about this transit system? 
• What are potential ways that this transit system can be improved? (Through sketching, Be imaginative!)

Also include at least 1 photograph of the systems and 1 sketch or diagram of the system in your slideshow.

Part 3:
Present your precedent research to the class group using your slideshow.
