Teaching and Learning Science as a Visual Experience
Abstract
This chapter brings about concepts about implementing a framework for teaching and learning across the disciplines by introducing topics and activities pertaining to science, computing, and graphic arts as a unified cognitive and visual learning experience. First, theoretical framework is presented, to support designing integrative projects for cognitive learning. This part provides basic information about brain and mind, feelings and emotions, cognitive thinking, intelligence and cognitive styles, along with some basics about technologies used for studying cognitive activity. Then follows short introduction to ways to communicate knowledge, visual thinking, visual literacy, and knowledge visualization concepts and methods. Next, concerns about science education draw attention to a need of including into curriculum new developments in science and information about currently emerging disciplines. The goal is to enhance technological literacy of students, activate their interest, motivation, abstract thinking, and elicit a wish to achieve their aims.
