The focus of this weeks class was visual learners. Many students are visual (spatial) learners, which means they prefer using images, pictures, graphs, maps and colors to attain information. With so many educators delivering with audio learning styles, these students are often left behind. There are many tools to help visual learners. While many may immediately think of using a Powerpoint or SmartBoard as the only way to help these students, websites such as Tagxedo.com and Wordle.com can be very helpful.
Even if a student is not a visual learner, visuals may help students gain interest in the subject area. Students learn more when they have interest in the topic. Making learning fun is very important. Visuals can do that. Visuals will catch a students attention from the beginning, and draw them in.
