Drawing would be a very good idea. But you could also use clipart, photographs of tea bags (which, when placed in a certain sequence would become icons), and whatever other icons might be of service.

It will be interesting to see what you come up with.

Use what you know and have learned.

I think you have it, B. But note that we want a range of icons, not just a bunch of findings that all fit on the far left. This wont demonstrate your understanding of the issue of progressions.

Here’s how I understand part one:

1. Go out and find a bunch of icons (no fewer than nine) in the non-digital world and place them on McCloud’s plane.
2. Take at least three of them and “Describe where these icons fall on McCloud’s version of the picture plane (52-53)”
3. Repeat for the digital texts.

I know there’s no right or wrong, so am I understanding this good or bad?
