Usual Visual Thinking in the Classroom

I recently put together a workshop on using visual thinking techniques in the classroom for a group of graduate students at my teaching center. Here’s a brief outline of the talk:

• Presenting Visually
  • Complement, don’t clutter.
  • Use metaphors.
  • Show relationships and patterns.
• Interacting Visually
  • Ask students to select images.
  • Ask students to create images.
  • Capture discussions graphically.

See the Prezi I created for the session, embedded below, for examples and links.

For more ideas on this topic, see the visual thinking guide I helped put together.
