Graphical problem solving and visual communication in the beginning computer graphics course
Steve Cunningham · ACM SIGCSE Bulletin · 2002
The beginning computer graphics course can teach much more than just computer graphics. It can also provide an excellent introduction to graphical problem solving and visual communication, and in so doing can be an excellent complement to other computer science courses that teach more analytical problem solving. This paper describes the graphical problem-solving and visual communication contexts and discusses how they can be supported by the beginning computer graphics course.
