Everything about Visual learning
Learning style
Visual learning is one of the learning styles in which information is primarily received and understood by a learner when presented in a visual format. Visual learners can utilize graphs, charts, maps, diagrams, and other forms of visual stimulation to effectively interpret information. It is best to treat a learning style as a matter of individual preference, rather than an educational need. Students generally learn best from mixed modality presentations, such as combining a spoken lecture with a visual aid. Wikipedia →
