Student Learning Outcomes

Discipline: Arts - CEA: Graphic Design & Illustration Unit

Course Name	Course Number	Objectives
Conceptual Illustration	ARTC 169	Students will present a portfolio representative of their ability to communicate visually through illustration demonstrating the use of composition, contemporary art trends, and cultural, social, and visual language.
Creative Design and Compositing	ARTC 220	Produce realistic-looking Photoshop composites.
Design: Two Dimensional	ARTD 20	Differentiate preferential, factual, and judicious thinking elemental to solving problems in design and visual arts. Make use of critical thinking (reading, writing, listening, speaking, observing and assessing) skills elemental to the problem solving of design and the visual arts. Recognize, analyze and interpret the expressive and creative qualities of art media in a work of art as it affects elementary compositional decisions. Use historic and current forms of abstraction in the visual arts. Perceive and demonstrate the relationship of hues to the conceptual pigment color wheel by mixing, analyzing, appraising, and identifying color correct swatches for Perceive and demonstrate the relationship of color complements by mixing, analyzing and appraising complementary tones (chromatic grays). Perceive and demonstrate the relationship of color to value by mixing, analyzing, and appraising monochromatic tints and shades relative to the achromatic value scale. Use value to describe form and express light logic. Use the formal elements, principles of design, and principles of gestalt to create well-designed studio projects in achromatic value and color. Perceive and interpret the 3-D world through contour line drawings. Identify, evaluate, discuss, and use the formal elements and principles of design and forms of compositional structure. Students will accurately identify three different spatial devices Students will be able to identify the three basic types of balance/symmetries. Students completing an assignment in Area C (Arts) courses will be able to analyze modes of artistic expression. Two-Dimensional Design students will be able to list all of the elements and principles of design by the eighth week of the semester.
Dynamic Sketching	ARTC 163	Students will demonstrate synthesis in the use of line, shape, volume, light, and texture in quick-sketch. Students will demonstrate compositional integrity in the application of sketching concepts and techniques. Students will present a sketchbook portfolio representing a breadth of sketching techniques and represented by a minimum of 65 completed pages. Students will be able to apply 3-dimensional and freehand perspective techniques to sketching. Students will demonstrate the ability to apply light logic and tone to form and texture in sketches.
Fundamentals of Graphic Design	ARTC 100	ARTC 100 students will produce composites in Photoshop using effective selection techniques and non-destructive editing.
Graphic Design Internship	ARTC 299	Self-assess knowledge and skills gained though the work experience.
Illustration	ARTC 165	ARTC 165 students will be able to demonstrate the ability to evaluate peer work via written critiques. ARTC 165 students will be able to describe the history of illustration and its application to various fields. Synthesize the formal art elements and principles of design with illustration skills and techniques in varying pictorial formats that range from simple to complex. Create original illustrations that interpret the visual world. Describe the history of illustration and its application to various disciplines. Develop skill in the use of tools and materials, which are common to the field. Discuss, analyze, and evaluate personal and professional illustration projects in both written and oral critiques.
Motion Graphics, Compositing and Visual Effects	ARTC 272	Produce motion graphics that meet industry creative standards.
Portfolio	ARTC 290	Create a professional-quality, online portfolio.
Print Design and Advertising	ARTC 120	Prepare digital files for print.
Typography	ARTC 160	Employ appropriate methods and technology to produce original letterforms and type styles.
Vector Design and Illustration	ARTC 140	Design and produce information graphics.
Visual Development	ARTC 167	Students will present a visual development portfolio representing the successful application of the synthesis of story, style, character, location, emotion, symbology, and composition.
Web Design	ARTC 200	Design effective web site prototypes.
