Description: Document Design provides a foundation in visual rhetoric and graphic design as elements of effective written compositions. Students study how the look of a message and its content work together to reach readers who are living in our information-immersed world. Students learn to understand and manipulate layout, style, and typography as they explore information landscapes through a designer’s eye, analyze the rhetorical choices of others, and create their own print and web documents.
