Computer+Art

=Computer Art= Instructor: Daniel Pearson Computer Art is a new class at CPH and was offered for the first time during the 2012-2013 school year. It is similar to Multimedia, however the Computer Art class is a year-long course and satisfies the "F" - Fine Arts requirement of the A-G requirements for admission into the UC or CSU (and beginning with freshman this year a graduation requirement from SUHSD). Students will use computers to develop their artistic perception and to create art. We will use a variety of tools and resources including but not limited to:
 * Photo Editing Software such as Photoshop or Pixlr
 * Illustration Software such as Illustrator or Inkscape
 * Page Layout Software such as In Design or Word
 * The Internet and the World Wide Web
 * Web 2.0 tools such as Wikis and Blogs
 * Social Media tools such as Edmodo or Canvas
 * Google Apps
 * eMail

Much of the work will take place in class

Units
