Learning Goals

The course aims to provide the student a set of theoretical and practical knowledge in the field of digital image processing with incidence in the field of digital editing software, targeted to the Design area. Stimulate visual perception through practical exercises where the student will explore the software in the design of exercises based on a digital photographic image.
Explore and develop at the level of initiation, the areas of drawing, Bitmap illustration, treatment and retouch photo photo, through digital editing tools.
Provide the student capacity to enable it to give a response to a basic level within the drawing and Bitmap illustration, digital image treatment and retouch.

Teaching Methods

The methodology is based on a series of structured lessons and may resort to exercises with different levels of learning. he evaluation is continuous with intermediate assessments and, at the end of the semester, the final evaluation in a jury model.

EVALUATION

In the NORMAL SEASON assessment students may choose one of two schemes: Continuous or Final Assessment.

1. CONTINUOUS EVALUATION SCHEME

Evaluation Components:
a) Class participation: 20%;
b) Work developed during the period with the accompaniment of the teacher, which must be submitted, at least, to a periodic evaluation with public disclosure of the classifications: 40%;
c) Presentation and defense of the work developed during the classes, which occurs during the "Regular Season Evaluations": 40%.

2. FINAL EVALUATION SCHEME

a) Work developed during the period with the teacher's accompaniment: 40%;
b) Examination based on the contents taught: 60%.
