In class a week ago, my Comp students and I discussed why visuals are so important. We 'see' pictures most often and not words when we are thinking. As we read we don't see the words in our heads, but instead are able to conjure images while we are reading that allow us to connect with the written word.
At Cornell there is a project that is asking professors to do this, to describe or show the most important diagram, or chart, or image that relates to what they do. It's called Visualizing Meaning and it looks really cool.
Any thoughts on what you'd use?
