Happy Holidays to all
I have only 2 days left and am trying to be a "good girl" and finish
grading all completed projects before I leave for vacation so I can actually
enjoy and relax.
After break we re-do curriculum guide info and I want to re-name a
high school course that I currently call "Advertising Art". The class prereq
is a drawing & painting class so I tend to get upper classmen. I'm trying to
attract more and feel that the name isn't "doing it".
I teach typography, layout, color theory, calligraphy as well as
design principles and advertising ideas. We work with a combination of media.
I make them do calligraphy to help them understand the characteristics of
lettering but also include work on the computer. It is not a computer
graphics class so I hesitate to call it that although I suspect that having
"computer" in the title would draw in more students. I need something short
and catchy and my brain is too tired this time of year to decide. Any clever
suggestions? Thanks! Monica
