Graphic Design Basics for Educators Using Free Software - online course - Group 1
E-learning
1-10 September 2023 | Romania
Intro
In recent years, we have conducted various surveys with our participants in online courses, and we have noticed recurring subjects that have piqued the interest of educators, such as youth workers, teachers and trainers.
In the MORE project, we seized the opportunity to develop two online courses based on this demand.
Therefore, we are thrilled to announce that you can now enrol in the "Graphic Design Basics for Educators Using Free Software" online course, created by our colleague, Florian Matei, in E+ project “MORE THAN RELIABLE EDUCATION” (MORE).
Who is this course for?
● Youth Workers
● Educators
● Social Workers
● Entrepreneurs and Small Business Owners
● Anyone interested in Graphic Design
What will you learn?
● You will discover some of the best sources of inspiration professional designers use for their projects.
● You will have basic knowledge of graphic design theory that you will be able to recognize and apply.
● You will learn the fundamentals of Canva and be able to create suitable designs for social media platforms.
● You will be able to apply an easy-to-follow workflow from creating a moodboard to multiple designs
● You will learn the fundamentals of Photopea and get to know some impactful features that will enable you to create great looking artwork.
Short description
We have structured this online course into two main sections: first, we will go through basic design theory, focusing on research and the principles of graphic design and secondly, we will get into actual design work using Canva and Photopea.
If your field of activity assumes communication, I won't need to tell you about just how important it is for your materials to look neat. You don’t need, however to necessarily outsource work to professional designers – with the help of this course, you can save a lot of energy and resources!
Why should you choose this course?
This free online course will help you get started with two of the best free software available and then provide you with a fast, no non-sense workflow from scratch to ready-to-publish designs. Also in Part 1, you will get briefed on the principles that make good design, as well as an easy-to-understand explanation on the two types of digital image.
Here are the projects followed through within this course:
- A Mood Board
- A Facebook Cover
- A Facebook Post
- An Instagram Story
- A YouTube Thumbnail
- A Printable Poster
Duration
The duration of the "Graphic Design Basics for Educators Using Free Software" online course is relatively short, and we recommend dedicating approximately 4-6 hours to follow the lessons and apply the learned concepts in order to create your own materials.
