Class Participation
What’s the best way to represent “class participation” visually? We rejected the idea of featuring a large class full of students raising their hands. It was a cliché, and not all kinds of participation include speaking aloud. So we chose an engineering schematic from the early 20th century, reasoning that student participation is essential to a well-oiled classroom. The four authors in our special section attest to this principle.
