Visual Literacy after 9/11.
Russell, Alison
Academic Exchange Quarterly, v7 n2 p61-65 Sum 2003
Describes an instructor's analysis of students' responses to an assignment to describe the events of September 11, 2001 for a visual and media literacy course. Discusses the impact of media reports on students' perceptions of those events, and the inability of most students to critically analyze the situation because of the absence of personal detachment.
