Visual Rhetoric Resources
This wiki page is a resource that you can use when designing visual rhetoric assignments and activities and when assessing visual rhetoric assignments. There is also a section of materials that you can provide for your students who may be creating visuals for assignments and activities. I have also enclosed here a summary of the findings from your WRTG 2010 survey you all completed. Thank you for participating, this data was used to develop your colloquium session and will guide planning for the VITL (Visual, Information and Technological Literacy Taskforce Links to an external site.).
