TASC Computer Graphics and Design study guide
TASC Computer Graphics and Design · Work through your exam, one topic at a time.
The Tasmanian Assessment, Standards and Certification (TASC) catalogue lists a course under the code CGD315120, titled Computer Graphics and Design. When we retrieved the catalogue page for this course on 2 November 2026, the site returned a "Page not found" error stating that the page "may have been moved or deleted," so the source contained no course description, syllabus, assessment structure, or exam details. Because of that, this page cannot tell you what the credential covers, who it is intended for, how it is assessed, or how to prepare, and we have not filled those gaps with assumptions. The code CGD315120 is recorded here only because it appeared in the URL we attempted to open; the page itself confirmed nothing about the course. Candidates should treat every specification question as unverified until TASC publishes current information. To prepare, start from the official TASC website: use its course search rather than a direct link, check the current course documents for the code, and confirm details with your school's course counsellor or TASC directly. Topics on this exam: Computer Graphics and Design. The TASC Computer Graphics and Design study guide has 1 section and about 317 words.
01Computer Graphics and Design
Candidates must understand the elements and principles of design, color theory, typography, image file formats, and digital image fundamentals. The elements include line, shape, form, space, texture, value, and color. The principles include balance, contrast, emphasis, movement, pattern, rhythm, and unity. Color theory covers the color wheel, primary/secondary/tertiary colors, complementary and analogous schemes, and properties such as hue, saturation, and value.

- Practice questionsWhich file format stores images using lossless compression and supports transparency through an alpha channel?
- FlashcardsRaster image. An image made of a grid of pixels, where each pixel holds color data.
- Cheat sheetRaster graphics store images as a grid of pixels; resolution is measured in pixels per inch (PPI), and scaling up causes pixelation because new pixels are interpolated.
- Key termsRaster Graphics. Images built from a grid of pixels, each storing color values.
- Study planDefine the core vocabulary of computer graphics and design (raster versus vector, resolution, bit depth, color models) in your own written notes.
- Common mistakesCandidates practise almost exclusively on screen and never internalise the RGB-versus-CMYK and screen-resolution-versus-print-resolution distinction; the difference is invisible on a monitor, so nothing signals the error.
