  • ObjectivosObjectives
    This UC aims to produce informative documents aimed at a specific audience (children, youth, adults, seniors) in conjunction with educational and health institutions in order to promote greater literacy among the population. At the end of this course students learn to know and explore their own graphic language, adapting it intelligently and pertinently to the imagery of the illustrative drawing dedicated to children, youth, adults or the elderly, and to build sequential, fictional and non-fictional images with educational and informational objectives. They must know how to illustrate instructions and teachings using traditional, mixed and digital records and develop documents for paper and digital dissemination (online).
