Synopsis

This book makes a case for the underappreciated importance of visual education within schools. It comes at a time when the development of multimedia teaching materials, including motion pictures and lantern slides, was only beginning, encouraging the teaching profession to maximize their use and to see their potential for instructional purposes. The book makes the case that images and other sensory experiences can cement concepts in a student's mind more readily than words and lectures alone. It is an exploration of the ways in which images can convey concepts not only more effectively, but also more universally. This book belongs in the collection of any educator or school administrator who desires to gain insights on effective teaching methods.
