Features: This book is a collection of notes, summaries, and reflections by Liu Lalan, a Chinese student studying Visual Communication at the University of Washington in the United States. It provides an in-depth record of her educational experiences and outcomes in the U.S., detailing how ordinary individuals are trained to become graphic designers. Currently, there is a significant gap between graphic design education in China and that in foreign countries, particularly the U.S. This book holds considerable reference value for Chinese graphic design students, teachers, and professionals, both in terms of conveying ideas and inspiring methods. The book selects five of the author's most important courses during her studies, explains her learning process with numerous images, and intersperses her study notes throughout. This is especially valuable for Chinese design teachers and students studying graphic design. The book is written in both Chinese and English, which will also greatly assist students of art who may have weak English skills. This book is suitable for graphic design students, Chinese graphic design teachers, working graphic designers, and students preparing to study graphic design overseas.
