Description
Come to this workshop to experience Visual Thinking Strategies (VTS), a collaborative, student-centered teaching method that fosters inclusive community-building dialogue through facilitated discussions of visual images. VTS is a deceptively simple approach to revealing diverse perspectives, deepening cultural self-awareness, and strengthening critical thinking skills. VTS can be used across the curriculum and does not require any special art training. Using three essential questions and a few specific facilitation techniques, teachers and students alike can learn to observe the world through others’ eyes and develop evidence-based thinking habits.
