In this exciting episode of Teaching Like Plato, Ms.D explores the innovative teaching methods that can be applied to the math curriculum, explicitly focusing on imagery and visual literacy and how they can enhance learning. She discusses the interconnectedness of mathematics and art, explaining how visual aids such as diagrams, memes, and student-created artwork may boost engagement, critical thinking, and inclusivity in the classroom. The episode emphasizes the importance of multisensory learning and will suggest strategies to incorporate visual literacy across all subjects to create a more accessible and inclusive learning environment!
