Course description:

Human brain processes graphic material very efficiently; so much so that people have a preference for images and, in many cases, we need to see to understand. Graphic elements are the first thing that attracts our attention in an article, scientific poster, project proposal or slide show. Furthermore, these graphic elements, such as diagrams, illustrations and data graphics, are what allow us to understand concepts that would be difficult to understand using only numbers and text. However, designing the artwork can be a difficult task to tackle. It is not surprising, since in the scientific career it is very rare to find a faculty, course or subject where it is taught how to create and integrate graphic information appropriately.

In order to remedy this deficiency, this course aims to teach working methodologies, basic design knowledge and tools to create graphic material that complements scientific texts in an ideal and effective way.

Objective

To learn working methodologies, basic design principles and tools to create quality visual material complementary to scientific discourse.

General skills:

Principles of graphic design . Knowing the factors that help to create more accessible and attractive information.
Logical design . Planning and reasoning each element of the graph.
Tool. Learning the Inkscape program to create and redesign scientific graphs.
Digital image. Acquiring basic concepts of digital imaging.

Program

Use of the image in science
Graphic design applied to science
Formats and supports
Introduction to data visualization
Familiarization with the Inkscape program
Diagram Creation
Data graphics redesign

Modality:

Online. Classes will be previously recorded and freely available to students throughout the course and at any time. In addition, students will have advice and help from teachers throughout the course via forums and specific videoconferences (for live talks, the specific date and time will be set in advance)

Final project

You will create your own project with the advice of the teaching team.

Requirements:

Computer with INKSCAPE software installed, headphones and internet connection. Pencil and paper to carry out exercises.

Dirigido A
