A picture tells a thousand stories, they say! We all have enjoyed beautifully drawn, illustrated story books. With digital technologies, a new whole new world has been created in terms of expressing oneself through art. The availability of new tools has also made it possible for us to create new communication outputs; moving away from a text-only approach. Some people communicate better with text, some with pictures, some with speech - ICTs allow for ways of expression using these multiple methods.
Effective communication now, therefore, depends on how well we are able to construct a story, the appropriate use of images, audio and video. In this unit we will focus on how we can use graphics tools to make richer and more meaningful communication.
