I believe that graphic design and page layout definitely have an impact on today's literacy and learning. Graphic design and page layout create addtional clarity, neatness, and organization for lesson plans. They end up making a boring and somwhat dull lesson, more interesting. They also catch a student's eye, and attention, which helps in the overall understanding of the lesson. It also caters to many learning styles, such as visual to actually see what the lesson consists of. In addtion to this, students will be encouraged to create their own graphic designs and page layouts to better understand the information they read about. It is important that students understand how to use and apply things like graphic designs and page layouts to presentations they themselves perfrom in front of the class.

I agree with the comment regarding different learning styles. Adding visual and graphic aids to a page layout in addition to text will allow more students to grasp the concepts than just the text alone.
I know that for people that are more visual learners it is way easier for them to learn through charts and diagrams that would be created by a graphic designer or a teacher. The way the information is presented is key in getting the audience to learn the key points of a discussion.
I am finding that the material and knowledge we have acquired in this class is both interesting and useful. Using the farious ideas gives a different outlook to your students that learning may and can be fun as well as informative.
