When should the designer use it? 300 How is Illustrator different from Photoshop? 300 How does the designer get the images from the computer onto paper (working with printing)? 400 This unit emphasizes the difference between Photoshop and Illustrator- vector vs. raster images, what Illustrator is best at doing: typography logos and graphics, working with printing technologies: matchin the image on the screen to the paper, tutorials: help program, web resources, textbooks, and "cheat sheets," and the communication with composition. 500 When working with Illustration, students will develop the ability to: 500 -- Identify he difference between photoshop and Illustrator- vector vs. raster images, 500 -- Evaluate what jobs Illustrator is best at doing, 500 -- Select appropriate printing technologies: matching the image on the screen to the paper, 500 -- Choose efficient ways to learn about the software on their own by using: the help program, web resources, textbooks and "cheat sheets." 600 All students will: 600 600 -- demonstrate an understanding of use of Illustrator software, 600 -- demonstrate an understanding of good visual design, 600 -- recieve feedback on their own artwork, 600 -- be involved in group discussions of their work, 600 -- be instructed on the effective presentation of their work to a group. 700 1. Homework is used as a formative and summative evaluation tool. 700 2. Quizzes and tests are used to access concrete information such as vocabulary, equipment use, and procedures. 700 3. Project evaluations may take the form of group critiques, rating scales, checklists, written evaluations, and teacher interviews. 700 4. Group discussions give insight into the creative process and problem solving, providing an avenue for learning, how to talk about art, how to view art, and how to improve one's skills. 800 field trips to local art colleges and art museums 800 guest speakers for communication arts and higher education options 800 applications for state and national design competitions 820 Equipment: 820 820 One fully equipped, up-to-date Macintosh computer system per student 820 One computer system for the teacher with additional RAM, processor speed, and storage to handle the course requirements 820 One digital projector system for presentation 820 Up to four, efficient color printers with abilities to print sizes up to 24X34" 820 Three digital scanners 820 Three, 5+ megapixel digital cameras 820 Other hands-on building equipment for cutting and pasting 840 Prerequisite courses are: Art 1
