Once the Microsoft PowerPoint assignment is done:
– In Microsoft Word, copy the visual that you created for the PowerPoint.
– Discuss the development of your visual by answering the following questions (400 words minmum, no title page):

(Cite the visual as explained in “Documenting Visuals” file)
– Why does the information need to be presented in a visual form? (For instance, why not just present the idea in text?)
– Why is the type of visual you used appropriate for the content?
– What “Visual Media and Design” strategies (see file) did you use in your visual? (For instance, how did you employ Gestalt Theory? https://youtu.be/FryaH599ec0)
