Mind map created remotely from Dallas and projected live in Nashville during the workshop.
This workshop for university faculty and staff featured many tools for physical and virtual facilitators and educators, including remote graphic capture and presentation on group facilitation and graphic recording by Alphachimp Studio Inc.
From the Vanderbilt Center for Teaching (CFT):
Our brains are wired to rapidly make sense of and remember visual input. Visualizations in the form of diagrams, charts, drawings, pictures, and a variety of other ways can help students understand complex information. A well-designed visual image can yield a much more powerful and memorable learning experience than a mere verbal or textual description.
On Wednesday, March 17th the CFT hosted Show and Tell: Integrating Visual Thinking in Your Teaching in order to begin dialogue about how we might tap into our students’ ability to think visually when teaching.
