Assignment #2

Throughout the last 3 weeks of class, we have learned that there are many aspects to communicating through the workplace.  One form of communication is through visuals.  For this assignment, I would like you to evaluate several examples of visual communication.  Please complete exercise 9.3 at the end of chapter 9.  You will find 8 different visual 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 your opinions should be part of this response, you also need to incorporate information from the reading as well as outside sources.  You should have aminimum of 2 sources (including the text), please remember to put your sources in proper APA format using both in-text citations as well as a reference page at the end.

While there is no minimum page requirement, I expect your answers to be thorough and well written.  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.
