Visual Literacy in Education

While reading the article “Life on the Screen: Visual Literacy in Education”, I definitely agreed with the majority of the points that they were trying to make. I think it is extremely important to add visuals into any presentation or lesson you have for a class. The chances of any student retaining information from a blank slide show with no pictures or colors are slim to none. It is really difficult to remember something that isn’t very memorable. I love the idea of taking art and music out of art classes and bringing them into English classes. I really feel that that would help students retain information and get to know the story on a whole new level. This could teach new forms of communication and creativity. I definitely agree with the idea of this article.
