                |   | When students and professors conduct research, 
                  publish books or give presentations, they have the burden of 
                  conveying complicated data or concepts in an organized and lucid 
                  manner. Illustrations, graphs, maps, and charts are often used 
                  to bring ideas and numbers to life. As technology has advanced, 
                  so have the methods for helping scholars present their information 
                  via illustrative means. |   
                |    Note: The data on these graphs is entirely fictitious; These graphs were created as a hypothetical document in order to illustrate the evolution of design capabilities in software. |   
                | Above, we used work by Claudia Graham, Mediaworks Artist, 
                    to illustrate the evolution of educational graphics in classrooms 
                    on campus over the years. For more information on getting 
                    help with graphics and course materials, contact Mediaworks 
                    at 752-2133. |
