"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?
This document explains Visual Thinking Strategies and how to promote and encourage them in class using pictures. Encourage discussion and exploration.
