مستخلص: | Computer graphic procedures can be adapted at low cost in order to teach the basics of layout and good design in high school and college journalism classes. Both journalism educators and students can benefit from computer equipment used as a vehicle for graphics experimentation. In addition to creating experimental newspaper and magazine page designs and presenting design concepts, such procedures accomplish the following objectives: (1) students become conversant with new technology; (2) students learn to apply this technology to solve problems; and (3) the actual work product has value for the school and the students because it is tangible. Some inexpensive graphics tools (such as the Kaola Technologies graphics tablet) now available include dot-matrix printers; drawing pad/stylus systems; "swap" screens; and the popular "mouse," a palm-sized device which can create lines on a screen. Advantages in purchasing small systems, other than initial cost, include the availability of inexpensive local repairs, and access to computer clubs that often provide repair services. (Twelve examples of computer-generated graphics are attached.) (JK) |
