Sample TASC Computer Graphics and Design Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your TASC Computer Graphics and Design exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1In a TASC CGD315118 Extended Design Project, what is the primary purpose of the design brief?
A.To state the design problem, purpose, audience, and constraints clearly
B.To copy an existing commercial product as closely as possible
C.To list only the software tools that will be used
D.To replace the industry research analysis essay
Explanation: A clear, concise brief frames the problem, purpose, audience, and constraints. TASC specifications state that a reproduction of an existing design is not a valid design project.
2Which pair best describes the classic relationship of form and function in computer graphics design?
A.Form is decoration; function is irrelevant once a model looks finished
B.Form is how something looks/feels; function is how well it performs its purpose
C.Form is only colour; function is only file size
D.Form and function always conflict and cannot be balanced
Explanation: Form concerns visual and sensory qualities; function concerns purposeful performance. Strong CGD solutions balance both for the intended digital or fabricated outcome.
3Which design element primarily refers to lightness or darkness of a colour or tone?
A.Line
B.Texture
C.Value
D.Shape
Explanation: Value (tone) describes relative lightness or darkness and is fundamental to contrast, depth, and readability in graphics.
4What is the main advantage of vector graphics for logos and scalable icons?
A.They always look more photorealistic than raster images
B.They require a camera photograph as the source
C.They cannot use colour fills
D.They scale without pixelation because paths are mathematically defined
Explanation: Vector artwork uses geometric paths, so it remains sharp at any size — ideal for logos, icons, and print/digital identity work.
5Orthographic projection drawings mainly show an object as:
A.Multiple flat views (such as front, top, and side) without perspective distortion
B.A single dramatic perspective from eye level
C.Only a rendered cinematic still
D.A random collage of screenshots
Explanation: Orthographic views communicate true proportions in flat elevations/plans useful for manufacture and technical communication.
6In animation or motion graphics, a storyboard is primarily used to:
A.Replace the need for any final rendered frames
B.Plan shot sequence, timing, and visual action before production
C.Calculate only the exam award algorithm
D.Convert raster logos into vectors automatically
Explanation: Storyboards map sequence, composition, and timing so production stays intentional — essential evidence in CGD motion projects.
7Which statement best describes raster (bitmap) images?
A.They are built from scalable mathematical paths only
B.They never store colour information
C.They are grids of pixels and can pixelate when enlarged beyond resolution
D.They cannot be edited in industry graphics software
Explanation: Raster images store colour samples in a pixel grid; enlarging beyond native resolution reveals pixelation.
8A site map in an interactive or web design project mainly communicates:
A.Only the brand colour palette
B.The word count of the industry essay
C.The exact GPU model of the school computer
D.The structure and navigation relationships between screens or pages
Explanation: Site maps show information architecture — how pages/screens connect — supporting Criterion-aligned interactive design documentation.
9Which principle of design is most concerned with creating a focal point that draws the viewer’s eye first?
A.Emphasis
B.Rhythm only as audio beat
C.Symmetry as the only allowed layout
D.File compression
Explanation: Emphasis (focal point) directs attention to the most important visual element through contrast, placement, or scale.
10Why do CGD Extended Design Project guidelines emphasise scanned ideation sketches?
A.Sketches replace the need for any digital production
B.Sketches prove exploration and experimentation toward a final solution
C.Sketches are only for students who cannot use CAD
D.Sketches are submitted instead of the research essay
Explanation: Process sketches show development from options to resolution — core evidence of applying a design process (Criterion 2).

About the TASC Computer Graphics and Design Exam

Computer Graphics and Design (CGD315118) is a TASC Level 3 course (15 TCE credit points; Computers and internet standard) in which learners apply design thinking and digital production skills to create computer-graphics solutions. Official external assessment combines a two-hour written examination with an Extended Design Project folio (due to TASC around 23 October 2026). This 100-question practice bank adapts course knowledge — design process, CAD/graphics principles, visualisation, materials/manufacturing awareness, and communication drawings — into multiple-choice study items. It does not replace required writing, folio, or production preparation.

TASC Computer Graphics and Design Study Tips from Top Performers

1Treat the Extended Design Project like a commercial brief: define purpose, audience, constraints, and success criteria early — reproductions of existing designs are not valid projects.
2Keep continuous process evidence: scanned ideation sketches, storyboards or site maps, and annotated production screen grabs prove originality and support Criteria 2, 5 and 8.
3Write the industry analysis essay (~1500 words) as higher-level analysis of the specialisation and industry — not a diary of your personal process.
4For the written exam, practise Criterion 6 (design in society) and Criterion 7 (contemporary computer graphics systems) under timed conditions with sketches/annotations for Section C-style responses.
5Check file operability before folio submission (including MP4 specs if used); non-viewable files cannot be marked. Use TASC student number only — no name or school branding.
