Abstract

Visual Learning is the use of graphics, images and animations to enable and enhance learning. <br>The goal of this study is to make faculty in science, computer science, and engineering disciplines aware of the potential for learning through visual means and to encourage them to use visual methods for teaching. Exploiting the visual senses of students can engage their interests and enhance learning. These active visual methods have the potential to increase the number of students, especially women and minorities.
