Slide 2 - The Magic of Pictures in Online Learning
Imagine you're reading a book without any pictures. It might be a little dull, right? Well, pictures help us understand information better. They make things more exciting and help us visualize what we're learning. Plus, they can be really cool!
According to Google Trends, "photo" is used more than any of these words on the Internet, followed by image, photograph, and then picture.
Slide 3 - Keeping Students Interested with Pictures
When we see a picture, it grabs our attention and makes us curious. Just think about reading a page full of words compared to looking at a page with bright and colorful pictures. Which one do you think is more exciting? That's right, the one with pictures!
Pictures make learning more fun and interesting because they show us things in a way that words alone can't. They help us imagine and understand things better. So, next time you're learning something new, remember to watch for those awesome pictures that can bring your learning to life!
Slide 4 - Making Learning Easier with Pictures
Pictures not only make learning fun but also make it easier. Our brains process pictures faster than words. So, when we see a picture that explains something, it helps us understand it better. It's like breaking down hard stuff into smaller, easier parts. That way, we don't get overwhelmed by too much information.
Slide 5 - Pictures that Help Us Learn
Our brains are amazing at creating mental pictures to remember things. Think about an apple. You can picture its color, and shape, and even imagine taking a bite! That's how pictures help us learn. They make things stick in our minds for a long time. Whether it's a flowchart, a diagram, a map, or just a simple picture, they all make learning more interesting.
Slide 6 - Using Pictures to Connect the Dots
Pictures not only help us remember things but also help us see patterns and connect the dots. When we visualize the overview of a process, we can anticipate what comes next. It's like solving a puzzle or creating a story in our minds. We can use cool characters or even simulations to make learning even more exciting and memorable!
Slide 7 - Getting Excited with Colorful Pictures and Simulations
Sometimes, courses can get a little boring, right? But fear not! We can use colorful pictures, awesome videos, and simulations to excite us. Imagine reading a hundred pages from a manual versus watching a video or simulation. Which one sounds more fun? That's why visuals are so important in making eLearning awesome!
