JRN 808: Journalism Education Visual Topics – Designing Student Media

July 5 to Aug. 18 •  Take this class for 3 graduate-level credits or not-for-credit
Design has never been more important, but sometimes design is the one area in which advisers feel the least competent. Take this class, and all of that will change.
Learn about typography, use of images, page hierarchy, color, grids, alternative story forms and more. By the end of the course, you’ll feel empowered to help your students create newspaper, newsmagazine and yearbook pages that will be more exciting, vibrant and contemporary.

Your instructor, Brian Wilson, is a teacher at Palo Alto High School in California, where he’s advised a sports magazine, yearbook and arts and culture magazine since 2015. Previously, he spent 18 years advising the news magazine, yearbook and online newspaper at Waterford Kettering High School in Michigan. He’s a former president of the Michigan Interscholastic Press Association.
