Visual Learning Helps Students Clarify Their Thoughts

Visual learning helps students organize and connect ideas by seeing relationships between new and prior knowledge. Visual learners think in pictures and detail, take notes, and solve problems by writing things down. They have better recall of visually presented words, like to read descriptions and narratives, and remember better when seeing charts and diagrams.

How does visual learning help students?

Visual learning helps students clarify their thoughts


Students see how ideas are connected and realize how information can be
grouped and organized. With visual learning, new concepts are more
thoroughly and easily understood when they are linked to prior knowledge

Characteristics of Visual Learners

They look around and examine the situation. They may stare when angry and
beam when happy. Facial expression is a good indicator of emotion in the
visual learner. They think in pictures and detail and have vivid imaginations.
When extensive listening is required, they may be quiet and become
impatient. Neat in appearance, they may dress in the same manner all the
time.

They have greater immediate recall of words that are presented visually.
Visual learners like to take notes. Relatively unaware of sounds, they can be
distracted by visual disorder or movement. They solve problems deliberately,
planning in advance and organizing their thoughts by writing them down.
They like to read descriptions and narratives.
