GRAPHICS TOOLS AND

DESKTOP PUBLISHER

Page 14: Computer tools for teaching and learning

There are 2 basic types: Bitmapped, Vector

Bitmapped (or raster): each pixel directly maps, or corresponds to, a portion of the image. The computer must keep track of position and color information for each pixel. #become jagged looking when scaled to larger size

Vector (or draw): the computer “remember” the steps involved in drawing a particular graphic image. This information is independent of a particular screen location or a graphic’s size. #vector can be scaled without any loss of quality.

FEATURES OF GRAPHICS TOOLS

 

Creative Arts : permit you to produce original artwork or modify existing artwork. There are variety of stimulate tools intended to mimic what an artist use (pencil, paintbrush, color palette, eraser etc.). You can select and control colors, and fill shapes with colors and/or patterns, and let you apply special effects (blurring, textures, and the illusion of embossing).

Packages e.g.: Adobe Photoshop, Adobe illustrator, Corel draw, Painter etc.

Page 16: Computer tools for teaching and learning

 

Business and scientific graphics : a program accept data, from within the program or from another source (spread sheet – Microsoft excel), and produce a chart or a graph . Business graphics include bar chart, pie chart, line graph etc. Scientific focus on line graphs as well as trigonometric and other mathematical functions.

Packages e.g.: Cricket graph, graphical analysis, Microsoft graph etc.

Page 17: Computer tools for teaching and learning

Mechanical Drawing : computer-aided design (CAD) is used for the production of blueprints and factory floor layouts, for landscape architecture, for the design of machined parts, and so on

Packages e.g.: AutoCAD, PowerCADD, IntelliCAD

Page 18: Computer tools for teaching and learning

Print graphics : inexpensive program that use built-in clip art to produce simple printed work such as signs, banners, and greeting cards etc.

Packages e.g.: PrintMaster, PrintShop

Page 19: Computer tools for teaching and learning

Desktop Publishing : response to demand for control over both text and graphics on a printed page. It gives users a high degree of control over the composition and layout of materials on printed page. Desktop publishing program typically afford greater control and precision. This software remains important today both in the publishing industry and for such educational applications as school newspapers.

Packages e.g.: Adobe PageMaker, QuarkXPress, Ventura Publisher, Publishing center etc.

PROBLEMS AND PITFALLS

Student may tend to emphasize from over substance, with page layouts programs, students (and teacher) often spend inordinate time fiddling with how a document looks. They may experiment with different fonts and page layouts at length while worrying little about the content. With graphics tools too, students often spend much time to experimenting with various features,

TEACHERS’ USES

Supporting lectures or other presentation to groups in the classroom.

Making presentations to school boards, at professional meetings, or in other nonschool settings. Recording the results of brainstorming or other development activities in class.

Displaying information at events, most presentation packages support timed or auto-run features that allow slide shows to run unattended.

Preparing notes, pictures, or other material that can be printed, transferred to photographic slides, or converted for placement on the Web. a

STUDENTS’ USES

Making in- class presentations or reports and preparing textual information, pictures, or other material that can be printed, transferred to photographic slides, or converted for placement on the Web.

Page 40: Computer tools for teaching and learning

PROBLEMS AND PITFALLS

Students may emphasize form over substance. When use prepared templates, can make almost any content look good. First, construct presentations using a blank template or in outline mode to discourage them from focusing on the flashy elements of the package. After creating the content, students then can focus on adding visual appeal. Caution students to avoid overdoing available effects when adding visual elements. Good design principles still apply. Teacher who presentation software, sometimes fall into the trap of wanting to turn everything into a presentation. It is best to take a variety of approaches when trying to reach different learners and help them stay actively involved.
