About this title

Synopsis

Teaches educators how to help their students develop skills in interpreting photographs, charts, diagrams, figures, labels, and graphic symbols. --from publisher description

Review

What Do You See I think this book is a must for all science teachers. Many of our modern learners are visual learners and are often called digital natives. We should address their learning in ways that will enhance their understanding. Traditional texts are fine but only as a resource. We should be looking at the graphics on the pages and we should help students to interpret these graphics. That is what this book is all about. --Reviewed by: Adah (San Antonio, TX) on January 30, 2011
