Adobe Spark
Adobe Spark is an innovative multimedia technology and medium for integrated storytelling. Users can build and modify all kinds of graphics using the app to exchange information in an immersive way. The tool was created in May 2016 and consists of three distinct design applications: Post (graphic design), Page (web design) and Video. Changes are stored in an online archive while creating either of the three applications, meaning users never miss their development. Each of the three separate platforms, in addition to the Adobe Spark website, has corresponding smartphone applications that make it much easier to build and modify projects that can be updated on the go.
Learning Activities
Design: Students can learn the different techniques of designing digital media. With trial and error, they are able to self-learn ways to create informative aesthetics.
