Course Objective

1. How students can make arrangements for different textile branches on the computer considering all processes (repeatable textile design, separation of the halftone, trimming) before printing.
2. How students can transform the digital visuals to a product in accordance with the textile printing techniques (silk, rotation, digital) and teaching students the relation between the production and design.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1	To be able to make designs for the different textile branches by using the software Adobe Photoshop on the computer.
2	Considering all paints (pigment, reactive), printing machines (rotation, filmdruck) and templates that are used in printing, to be able to arrange semitone spots and CMYK hue separation files
3	By using the semitone and CMYK hue separation, different spots, angle, resolution values, to be able to make textile tram and printing applications
4	Considering the effects of priority printing colour to the printing results, being able to set up colour round in the production process for printing
5	To be able to analyze the textile designs for printing (how many colours will be used, textile tram, choosing the templates) and make a decision on what kind of printing silk, scraper, fabric etc. are the most suitable for the printing.

Planned Learning Activities and Teaching Methods

1. Lessons
The teaching assistant introduces the software Adobe Photoshop and practically teaches the aesthetical and technical levels (textile tram, separation of the colour semitones) of the textile design by using the visual and written sources.

2. Applications
Students make textile designs for mass production on a specific theme of a project considering the physical conditions of the printed items and the methods of printing style and a chosen design s pre-printing levels are applied on the computer.
