Introduction:
Due to the upgradation of online teaching-learning in the last two years and the development of smartboards and e-content, familiarity with graphic design and its tools has become an essential skill set for teachers. A well-designed eLearning module guides learners as they study by creating focal points that draw attention to the most important parts of a course. For example, even if a page or slide is packed with text, a simple change in font size can highlight important terms to remember.
