Picturing the World: Visual Understanding of Others and Self (Poster 46)

Saturday, November 11, 2023
12:00 PM – 1:00 PM East Coast USA Time
Location: Veracruz Exhibit Hall
Imagery is ubiquitous. The analysis of images, from the past and other cultures, encourages gifted students to become aware, self-directed learners. These non-linguistic primary sources provide students — especially those with visual-spatial talents — with opportunities matching developmental levels and culture-based learning needs. This session shares resources and strategies for critical and creative growth.

Learning Objectives:

  • Participants will gain resources for photos and imagery to be used in classrooms to develop greater understanding of others and self.
  • Participants will better understand how to analyze photos as primary sources (e.g. in Social Studies).
  • Participants will better understand how to analyze photos to develop understanding in other content areas.
