Visual Thinking Strategies

"Visual Thinking Strategies" is an inquiry-based teaching method that improves critical thinking skills, encourages participation and problem-solving, and allows for greater acceptance of individual views and perspectives within the classroom setting.

Using art as a stimulus, the main three questions in focus during these lessons are the following:

1. What's going on in this picture?
2. What do you see what makes you say that?
3. What more can we find?
