Visual+Stimuli


 * Visual Stimuli**

Visual stimuli, as part of a learning strategy, are visual cues or objects used to enhance learning. They promote creative associations and connections that aid in memorizing and recalling information. Interest and excitement in learning can be generated by the visual alteration of colour, shape, and imagery in the learning materials used as well as in the classroom environment. Visual stimuli can take the form of illustrations, photographs, films, real objects, or graphics. Students can create their own visual stimuli to assist them in memorizing and recalling information.
