Using Visual Mapping to Communicate How Learning Objectives Link to Student Tasks.

This workshop will highlight a process for communicating learning objectives, content, themes and processes through using knowledge visualization and visual perceptual learning. Participants will be asked to visually map out the learning outcomes, objectives, and tasks students must perform in a one-page visual. The participant-created visual can then be used to communicate learning objectives to students as well as discuss the connections that students should be making. Using visuals to communicate key learning concepts helps students see the main purposes of the class and assists professors by having visual references to reinforce why tasks need to be completed.
