Visual Designing of Education

We see images in textbooks. So we must first understand what is an image? An image is basically two-dimensional picture, that has a similar appearance to some subject. Videos and images help a student to connect with the text that he is reading. Giving information to students in a concrete visual form helps them handle the many happenings during a day that can cause confusion or frustration. Looking helps students establish attention better than just listening. Once they have focused their attention, the rest of the communication message can get in. 

Visual strategies bring in clarification it avoids confusion and helps students to record their observations and thoughts in writing. It also helps them in memorizing particular facts. Often student's relationship with social studies textbook involves confronting a wall of deadened facts that reduce the learning of history to memorizing a series of events and developments that occurred during a particular historical period. Pictures allow students to relate a concept to a quick image. That simple image can conjure an entire script. It conveys meaningful information that can communicate far beyond written description.

Traditional classroom settings can be rather frustrating and students can have trouble succeeding in an environment where one has to only go through longs sentences. Videos and images give a break to the students from the monotonous task of reading as it goes beyond the texts. These visuals take words off a page and bring the story to life. They are particularly helpful for a generation of students who have grown up with television and computers.

At Arch Techno we make learning easy. The famous saying “a picture is worth a thousand words” explains it all. We undertake the expense of including many photographs and other visuals in the layout of a chapter. We design the education text with various images and videos.
