The Design of Visual Materials for Academic Purposes: The Case of a Mexican Postgraduate Student at an English-Speaking University
Abstract
In this article I discuss how a Mexican master’s student at an English-speaking university engaged in the design of tables, graphs and diagrams, and why he incorporated them into his written academic work. His previous and new experiences, the values of his discipline, the utilization of software programs, among other factors, contributed to his use of different types of visuals. The issues addressed here are important for writing teachers and their students.
