  • Making Choices About the Study of Graphic Design
    MAKING CHOICES ABOUT THE STUDY OF GRAPHIC DESIGN The American Institute of Graphic Arts (AIGA), the national organization that represents professional graphic designers, and the National Association of Schools of Art and Design (NASAD), which ac- credits college and university design programs, have prepared this publication to assist students in making choices among educational programs in graphic design. The text that follows is intended to help students consider the extent to which specific graphic design programs can accomplish their published goals and the clarity and accuracy of claims about career preparation. Many colleges and universities offer courses and degree programs in graphic design; however, content, time spent in the major, and graduation competencies reflect various purposes. The label graphic design carries many meanings. This diversity is healthy as long as students make informed decisions about the match between their own educational goals and what programs deliver in actual preparation for performance in the field. GRAPHIC DESIGN is the profession that plans and executes the design of visual communication according to the needs of audiences and the context for which communication is intended. Graphic designers work in advertising agencies, consulting offices, in-house design departments in corpora- tions, instititutions, publishing, and the film, television, and computer industries. They create printed and electronic communication that includes: books; magazines; newspapers; catalogs; posters; bro- chures; annual reports; graphic identities and logos; exhibitions; packaging; environmental graphics and signage; CD covers; movie titling; on-air television graphics; interactive websites; and multime- dia programs. Their work is composed of images and typography. Graphic designers who work in film, video, or computer media also use sound and motion as means for communicating messages.

DESCRIPTORS *Art Education; Art History; Artists; College Curriculum; Commercial Art; Elementary Education; Graphic Arts; Handwriting; Higher Education; *Manuscript Writing (Handlettering); Western Civilization; Writing Skills ABSTRACT Expressing concern that interest in hand lettering and calligraphy has diminished due to limited career applications, seventeen U.S. master calligraphers who teach or have taught calligraphy were interviewed. The calligraphers made six suggestions that have implications for eiucators: (1) italic based alphabets, rather than the current forms of penmanship, should be taught in elementary grades since there is some evidence suggesting that learning this calligraphy form improves self esteem and academic performance among young children labeled unteachable; (2) a clarification of calligraphy standards is necessary for the recognition of calligraphy as a unique art form;(3) calligraphy is a valid way to learn principles of design;(4) study of the historic development of letter forms contributes to general understanding of the history of Western Civilization;(5) calligraphy skills are a useful resource for professional work and contribute to a sensitivity of industry's needs; (6) calligraphy should be offered as an optional course in the foundation year program.
