English 680V: Visual Rhetoric in a Technological Age (Purdue) - George http://www.digitalparlor.org/sp07/blakesley7/taxonomy/term/58/0 en Play means more than visual literacy http://www.digitalparlor.org/sp07/blakesley7/node/332 <p>"Literacy means more than words, and visual literacy means more than play." (16) </p> <p>Related to my post on "What is Visual Rhetoric," I want to challenge the base assumptions of which George is working. Literacy is more than words. But if our students are already visually literate, what are we teaching them. I'm not saying that we aren't teaching them anything, but I think that articulating more rigorous and specific answers to this question will help us to better adapt visual rhetoric to our purposes in the composition classroom.</p> <p><a href="http://www.digitalparlor.org/sp07/blakesley7/node/332">read more</a></p> http://www.digitalparlor.org/sp07/blakesley7/node/332#comment George Weekly Reading Response Tue, 27 Mar 2007 10:35:19 -0400 Adryan 332 at http://www.digitalparlor.org/sp07/blakesley7
