Abstract

The communications goal in University Studies was defined quite broadly to include not just writing, but oral, numerical, and graphical modes as well. The latter proved especially challenging; fortunately, in the first cohort of faculty to teach in Freshman Inquiry, we had the resources of a cartographer, an artist, and a member of the dance faculty, each of whom was highly aware--in his or her own different ways--of the pedagogies of visual communication. Yet, however well we have succeeded in defining, operationalizing, and teaching them--and our efforts are mixed at best--these alternate forms of communication still compete with writing for equal recognition and implementation in the classroom.
