21st century skills: visual literacy. (n.d.). Retrieved Mar. 14, 2005, from 21st Century Skills Web site: http://www.ncrel.org/engauge/skills/vislit.htm.
“Visual literacy is the ability to interpret, use, appreciate, and create images and video using both conventional and 21st century media in ways that advance thinking, decision making, communication, and learning.”
Supporting Research"Young people learn more than half of what they know from visual information, but few schools have an explicit curriculum to show students how to think critically about visual data."
Mary Alice White, researcher, Columbia Teacher's College.
Supporting Research"The majority of information absorbed by human beings is collected with our sense of vision. It seems logical the we emphasize the development of visual skills as a way of preparing for successful and satisfying lives."

This is your brain
Actually, it is a picture of a brain model showing the two hemispheres

Analytical Objective
Looks at parts
Right Brain Creative Random Intuitive Holistic Synthesizing Subjective Looks at wholes
The Reality Both hemispheres are involved in
cognition and memory. The right hemisphere tends to
remember the gist of an experience. The left hemisphere tends to
remember the details. The left hemisphere can only pay
attention to items on the right side of the visual field; the right hemisphere has a global spotlight.
