Lesson 1.3: Viewing
Advertisements, commercials, brochures, cartoons, charts, graphs, magazines, websites, and newspapers - the ability to view critically is an important skill to master in today's face-paced visual world. You combine reading skills with viewing skills all the time, whether reading a bus schedule, Googling, or looking for a poem in your textbook. The way which information is presented can be crucial in delivering a message effectively. This section will walk you through some critical viewing skills, including how to view a textbook, newspaper, website, and charts and graphs. The final assignment for this section ties it all together: reading, writing, and viewing.
