How To Combine Text And Image In eLearning Design

How To Combine Text And Image In eLearning Design | Distance Learning, mLearning, Digital Education, Technology | Scoop.it

Connie Malamed writes: "In visual art and graphic design, a composition is the arrangement of visual elements into one cohesive whole. In eLearning and presentation design, every slide can be seen as a composition. The way that you combine text and image (including shapes) in a slide affects the message you convey and the visual appeal of the material."

Students need exposure to graphic design techniques to address many of the CCSS. Under the speaking and listening standards, students in middle school must introduce multimedia components to "clarify information," "emphasize salient points," or "add interest," depending on the grade level. Connie gives great information here for students to create more visually appealing graphics.

Visme - Great Tools for Making Flowcharts and Mind Maps | Free Technology for Teachers | Distance Learning, mLearning, Digital Education, Technology | Scoop.it

Visme is a graphic design tool that I've been using off and on for the last five years. Back when I started using Visme it was known as EWC Presenter and it was a good tool for designing slides and infographics. Recently, Visme added new flowchart design templates and tools.

25 Must-Have Free Fonts for Entrepreneurs and Designers

25 Must-Have Free Fonts for Entrepreneurs and Designers | Distance Learning, mLearning, Digital Education, Technology | Scoop.it

Great fonts (like most excellent things on the Internet) are generally handcrafted by independent designers. Making a font takes an incredible amount of effort, which is usually reflected in the price tag. On rare occasions, though, kind and generous designers will give out a few fonts for free, as a way of advertising the rest of their collection. If you like any of the fonts below, please consider supporting their creators.

 

I’ve compiled the following list of 25 must-have free fonts for entrepreneurs, designers and anyone else looking to impress. Enjoy!...
