What?
This week we were given our final project. The assignment is to create 2 documents and we can choose out of a flyer, newsletter, and/or brochure. We can also choose which program we want to use to do the assignment.
So What?
Best assignment ever. There was no question in my mind which program I would use. Illustrator, of course. I love Illustrator, I use it a lot. I have used it to create my own visual for lessons. I used it to make my newsletter for the practicum class. I use it for everything.
I liked creating these documents because I know it's something I will definitely do in my career as an early childhood educator. I'm sure I'll continue to use Illustrator to create visuals and graphics throughout my school classes. I also use it for personal things like designing my wedding announcements.
Now What?
I'm sure I won't be giving out any assignments to my students to use Illustrator - it seems a bit advanced for a preschooler. But it will affect my children by the visuals and activities I create through Illustrator. It will also affect them by the brochures, newsletters and flyers I can create through this program. Yay Illustrator, let's hear it for Adobe! Wahoo!
Video
Oh how I love Schoolhouse Rock - takes me back. The one that I still remember is the "I'm just a bill on Capitol Hill" but I'm sure I've watched a million during my elementary years. And now having watched this I'm sure it'll be in my head for the rest of the day. Yipee.
