PART 1

One form of communication is through visuals.  For this assignment, I would like you to evaluate several examples of visual communication.  Please complete seen in the ( ATTACHMENTS CHAPTER 16, 16.1, 16.2 PDF).  You will find 5 different visuals that are designed to communicate very specific information.  I would like you to evaluate each of these visuals by answering the following questions:

1. Is the visual’s message clear?
2. Is it the right visual for the story?
3. Is the visual designed appropriately? Is color, if any, used appropriately?
4. Is the visual free from chartjunk?
5. Does the visual distort data or mislead the reader in any way?

While this is not a formal paper, I do expect your answers to be grammatically correct.  Your opinions should be part of this response, but you also need to incorporate information from the reading as well as outside sources.  You should have a minimum of 2 sources , please remember to put your sources in proper APA format using both in-text citations as well as a reference page at the end.

  Please do not just list the question and then list the response.  I would like to see the questions incorporated within your answers in a well written short essay.  Refer to the following rubric:

PART 2

This week’s reading from the text is all about the writing process.  I would like you to focus on chapter 5 for this forum.  Chapter 5 discusses not only how to write well, but the process that we use to get there.  At this point in your college career, I am sure that you have all written more papers than you care to count.  What is your process?  Does this process work for you?  After reading chapter 5(Chapter5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5 PDF), is there anything that you can change in order to improve your outcome?

While this forum clearly asks for your specific process, please remember to use the terms from the text, KEYWORDS ARE BOLDED IN THE PDF..  You should compare and contrast your process with the processes that are suggested in the text.  

(NO PLAGIARISM, MINIMUM OF 450 WORDS, MINIMUM 1 REFERENCE) PART 1 AND PART 2 SHOULD BE ON SEPARATE ATTACHMENTS.
