Lee V. Pollard High – Graphic Design 1a-1b

Mar 2026 · 2nd Semester

In Graphic Design I students will explore two-dimensional and three-dimensional real-world applications of design. After acquiring a historical context of graphic design, students will develop skills in artistic perception, critiquing, and application of design strategies through experiences that emphasize solving visual art problems. Students will develop an awareness of historical trends in design, themes and subject matter from diverse times, places and cultures. Art criticism experiences will further develop a student's ability to see how their personal life affects their interpretations of design. All experiences will focus on developing perception and application of the elements of art and principles of design through contemporary design applications.
