Knowledge based societies today are highly focused on sharing written
information based on text. At the same time communication through
pictures, photos, images and icons has increased, so people need to be
aware what they mean and how to use them. This project looks at the
meaning and importance of visual learning in learning processes -
especially in the field of literacy, basic education and language
teaching.
Activities
- Provide high quality teaching in visual learning
- Setting up a local network of training providers in each
participating country
- Organising workshops to train experts in visual learning
- Interviewing adult learners about the importance of visual
learning
- Developing materials about visual learning
Target groups
Teachers and trainers in adult education settings will be able to
enrich their concepts. Learners will benefit because a wider concept of
learning allows a better fit to their individual needs.
Aims and results
With this project we want to raise awareness about visual learning
and train teachers and trainers for visual learning. We will develop a
gallery with examples of visual learning, course materials and a
handbook for.
