Abstract
As technology is changing and reshaping the world of public school education, one of the new challenges that teachers face is to teach in a distance education environment. Teachers are challenged to find and learn effective ways to teach in distance education at different levels. This paper will explore and discuss “Graphic Design” as one tool of effective instruction in a distance learning environment. Beginning with the theoretical considerations of graphic design, the principles of effective graphic design will be discussed for different media used in distance education.
