Entry Six: Design Unit

I liked learning about the different design principles, my favorite had to be making sure that the colors as well as the fonts that are used when designing anything, i.e.: newsletter, flyer, or a poster. I definitely think that learning more about the different design principles will help me design better flyers. I would love to use these skills in my future classroom to send home with my students to invite their parents to school events as well as tell them all about what their children are doing in the classroom. I definitely think that it is important for both an educator and a student to have this information because it can help them in the classroom as well as in their personal lives. If a student wants to start a dog walking business they would want to know the best way to catch someones eye and have it so that they will read their flyer and possibly give them a job. And an educator as stated can use these skills to put together newsletters and things for the students to bring home to their parents.
