Visual Arts--Sample Student Responses

Score of 1. Both of these packages received a score of 1. The floating stick figures that get lost in white space and the lack of color on the box on the left make it hard to figure out what sound is supposed to be in it.

The box on the right is also ambiguous, in this case because the viewer is told that the package contains both a whisper and a scream with contradictory images and type.

Press the 'play' button or drag the slider control to view different sides of the box.
