Notes

  1. 1.

    The degree courses subject to analysis are the three-year courses in Communication Science in Italy, and the data are related to the 2017/18 curricula.

  2. 2.

    The analysis reported in this article derives from the author's experience as a teacher of an ICAR/17 course called Methods and Techniques of Graphic Representation starting from AA 2014/2015, which over the years has been integrated with the courses of Journalism Languages, Marketing and Advertising Communication.
