What is visual learning?

Many teachers generally regulate their lessons to three basic learning styles: auditory learning in which the student learns best by hearing; Kinesthetic learning in which the student learns best through practical activities and movement; And visual learning in which the student learns best to see examples and use of graphic organizers. Each learning style requires that the lessons are significantly or slightly adjusted to suit different learning styles. For example, in order to describe the concept of buoyancy - as objects float - a student of visual learning helped a picture floating in the sea, built with another picture of a rock sunk to the bottom of the sea. Pictures help the student visual learning to process the concept in the way the most suitable for his learning style. The student understands this concept better with pictures than he or she, for example, if the buoyancy definition was simply read out loud from the text. Simple graphics are best because more complicated graphics can confuse the student or wrap it in too much informationand.

Graphs and graphs are examples of graphic organizers that can best help student visual learning. When processing information, the student can be able to better understand relationships and concepts if he can portray them on a chart or graph or seen in a photo or illustration. When dealing with literature, a student of visual learning would greatly help conspiracy, such as the fence of the pyramid, which shows a growing action, the climax of the story and the falling action. These organizers can help maintain information, organizations of details and understanding simple and complex texts.

Student identification as a visual student is an important first step in recognizing methods for effective teaching of this student, but this is not the only step. If a student falls into the category of a visual student, the teacher can now have a numberNY methods of teaching and learning, the teacher must consider that each student is different and will have their own strengths and weaknesses. Graphic organizers are the beginning, but from there the teacher has to determine how to get graphic organizers to work effectively for an individual student.
