his movie was made to inspire teachers of all subject areas to appreciate the opportunity for learning using visual imagery in their classes.

owerful as words are, we fool ourselves when we think our words alone can detect, describe, and defuse the multifaceted problems of today. They can’t – and that’s bad, because words have become our default thinking tool.

The Visual Thinking Revolution is Here!

But in reality, concepts and facts require different approaches and different learning strategies.

Concept maps can be read as sentences starting from the main idea and working out along the sub-paths.

Concept mapping serves several purposes, helping students: -Brainstorm and generate new ideas -Discover new concepts and label propositions that connect them -More clearly communicate ideas, thoughts and information -Integrate new concepts with older concepts

with visual notes, you can add related, newly presented concepts next to the original concept, right into your map. This helps you form a picture in your mind of how the information is connected. This is ideal for organizing and starting to assimilate the information.

Students get to share their ideas in a way they can be proud of. Blogging is great for this because the posts are read not only by classmates, but also by anyone else who stumbles upon them online. Blogging promotes the development of good writing skills, so helping students take ownership of the project can help them write well. Blogging provides students with an outlet for things they may not get to share in the classroom, so giving looser guidelines on topics can bring about more interesting blog posts.
