XCAM052 - Graphic Design: Ages 9-12

Course Description

Design is everywhere: on your shoes, on street signs, on the internet. When we learn the techniques and principles of graphic design, we see how design is interwoven with every aspect of our lives. We also gain an understanding about how to apply that knowledge to create our own creative projects! From designing a logo for a favorite sports team, skateboard crew, club, music group, or event to creating posters and more, this hands-on, project-based course will help start you on your way to making some great designs. Through a combination of looking at real-world design challenges and building a foundation of basic techniques, students learn what graphic design is, what it does, why it's so important, and how to make their own graphic design solutions.
