Curriculum Guide
Course Title: Computer Graphic Design Subject: Technology Education Grade Level(s): 9-12 Synopsis of Curriculum
This course introduces students to a wide variety of digital communication methods. Students create digital images by using computer software such as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and other computer programs. Students design and create such projects as posters, advertisements, tickets, stickers, notepads, and business card etc. All projects are composed of images and text that work together to communicate a message. Whether it is to attract attention, inform, persuade or inspire, the graphic design industry specializes in creative problem solving. Graphic designers promote brands, markets ideas, and influence consumer behavior. Some of today’s most dynamic fields -- advertising, publishing, interactive -- are based on this fundamental concept of graphic design.
