In today’s diverse classrooms, engaging students is essential for meaningful learning. Visual teaching strategies, enhanced by digital tools, can transform passive learners into active participants by catering to a wide range of learning preferences and abilities. This session will focus on how to use digital tools to make learning more engaging, interactive, and student-centered through visual learning techniques.

Participants will explore a variety of digital tools that support visual learning, understand how to create dynamic learning experiences, and gain practical strategies to keep students engaged. By making learning more interactive and visually stimulating, educators can captivate their students' attention and foster deeper understanding.
