Creates a welcoming and inclusive environment.
Elio L. Arteaga: a true maestro of the visual arts applied to mass communications. Himself a blogger, he transmits to the students the passion for representing the media message in more ways than the written one. I took VIC3400 – Visual Design for Global Media on Fall of 2024, my very first semester in the Public Relations, Advertising, and Applied Communications bachelor at FIU, and it made me feel welcomed and appreciated, since such is the atmosphere Professor Elio creates for the teachings. His quizzes are in the form of Kahoot games, and playing you actually learn in a very fun way. He never, ever, ever forgets to leave a feedback comment, and when the semester ends you will discover that now the visual arts are easy and known to you, thanks to this great person in charge.
