  • Meanwhile, there has been explosive growth in the use of Twitter and Facebook by these companies. These were among the key findings of the latest benchmarking study conducted by Nora Ganim Barnes, Ph.D., director of the Center for Marketing Research at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth and Senior Research Fellow and Research Chair for the Society for New Communications Research.
  • Social networking continues to lead the way: 71% have corporate Facebook pages 59% have corporate accounts on Twitter 50% have a public facing corporate blog 44% say Facebook is the single most effective social networking platform they use
  • 50% have a corporate blog (up from 45% a year ago) 34% have developed policies to govern blogging by their employees

  • 56% reported social media was “very important” to their business/marketing strategy 57% report using search engines and social networking sites to recruit and evaluate potential employees
  • “This clearly demonstrates the growing importance of social media to this segment of the business world,” Barnes continued. “These fast growing companies drive the American economy. Their willingness to interact so transparently via interactive technologies with their stakeholders defines them.

For example, the term bleed, which refers to text and illustrations that run to the edge of a page, prompts an excellent discussion on the pun in Spiegelman’s subtitle for the first volume of MAUS: My Father Bleeds History.
  • The most effective way of guiding students toward insights on the visuals in graphic novels is to allow them to brainstorm out loud about the details on one page.
  • Often, merely cataloging details encourages students to analyze more deeply.

  • A way to get students to study this technique is to give them two excerpts from a graphic piece, one with the words removed (so that students look only at the visuals) and the other containing only the text (students can then compare differences in the way they read it).
