EDLD 5366 - Week 1 - C.R.A.P


This week we discovered the C.R.A.P (Contrast, Repetition, Alignment, and Proximity) Method. We were given the opportunity to create a digital product that can be used to teach other teachers/co-workers about the four principles of design. A design of our choice; collage, poster, business card, brochure, etc. and save as a pdf. In learning about the principles of design, we had to investigate ancient manuscripts and books that give insight into the history of graphic communication and how the principles of design were used in these early manuscripts. Writing a 50-100 word reflection while describing our first impressions, identifying examples of each of the four principles of design, and analyzing what techniques the authors/artists employ to help us understand the importance of those manuscripts/books.
