A Study Of An Educational Mode On The Program Of The Art Of Illustration In Digital Age

Education is the key point for the development of the art of illustration. In the new digital age, the establishment of a new mode of education is necessary. It should be based on the necessity of our society, should be based on the consideration of students' career.In this thesis, I will present what I thought about illustration by examining the characters of digital age and the evolutionary development process of illustration. I will also analyze the opportunity and challenge brought by the revolution of technology and the international influence of visual art in digital age. From my point of view, illustration should have contemporary meaning. It is a combination of art and technique, a combination of image and text. Based on this notion, I will enlarge the range of the concept of illustration, put it into a broader context.The new duties of college are another issue I will discuss. I will indicate the problems existing in our educational system today. I feel that college education should be based on the necessity of our society. When we teach student, we have to consider their future career. I will argue in my thesis that we should have refresh our curricula system in order to echo this change to develop a set of new educational strategies.
