This document discusses visual literacy in the classroom. It begins by defining visual literacy as the ability to understand and produce visual messages. It explains that visuals are processed faster than text and a large portion of the brain is dedicated to vision. The document then provides examples of how to incorporate visual literacy into teaching, such as using timelines, maps, photos from historical archives, and infographics. It also discusses using augmented reality, videos, graphic novels and more visual forms of storytelling. The goal is to engage multiple learning styles and help students better understand concepts through visual representations.
