II. LITERATURE REVIEW A. Theoretical Review 1. Picture strip story Wright (1989) ,states that, “pictures are very important in helping students to retell experiences or understand something since they can represent a place, an object, people, etc.” (as cited in Yusuf, 2011). Latuheru (1988) states that “Pictures have several functions in the teaching and learning process”. First, picture can translate abstract ideas into more realistic forms, from the picture learner can easily imagine about what they will talk about. Second, pictures are easily obtained, e.g. from school books, newspapers and magazines, it it easier for the students to relate the picture with what they want to talk about. Third, pictures are usable in different kinds of …show more content…
Fauziati (2009) describes, the picture strip story activity like one student in a small group is given a strip story. She shows the first picture of the story to the other members of his group and asks them to predict what the second picture would look like (as cited in Nurhanifah, 2014, p.3). Another way, the teacher will give a sequence of picture to a group of students then students in a group will describe a picture given in chronological order one by one. So, here the students’ creativity is built because they have to predict what happened in the picture. By doing this technique, it can build the students in understanding and remembering about what they will talk about by looking at the …show more content…
From that function above, it shows that a picture strip is very effective to conduct. They can use picture to tell a complex story. By guideance of the picture it can make them easier to remember what they will talk about. It will make the students motivated in learning using a picture. Because, through the picture they can think and remember what they will say in front of the class. From the explanation of the function above we can know that there are advantages of this technique. First, The students were able to learn how to predict the way of story and understood it. It is very easy for the students to remember the series of the story. Second is the students could develop their visualization ability that could make they were creative. The picture that used in strip story is related to the story, it makes the visualization ability of the students will build and it can also make the students think creatively. Third, the students could speak use their own language. The students can use their own language to describe the picture strip, there is no limitation in vocabulary. It can make them become more confident because they speak using the word that they have already known. The next is the students were more attractive and active in the class because they enjoyed the interesting class. By using picture, it can make the learning process more interesting and it can make the students more active in involving themselves

Having such an image before our eyes, often we fail to recognize the message it is trying to display from a certain point of view. Through Clark’s statement, it is evident that a photograph holds a graphic message, which mirrors the representation of our way of thinking with the world sights, which therefore engages other
We begin with the analysis of the benefits of power point slides. The point of a power point slide is to accelerate information absorption by making a clean cut easy to read, very linear, presentation. The use of the power point system allows a better understanding of the conversation; you are able to easily differentiate between two speakers, you can easily understand who is speaking and in what order they spoke. Most of the conversations held in the reading are linear, beginning with Speaker A, and transitioning back and fourth between Speaker A and B as they argue or converse. You are not left wondering who is speaking at which point. There is a superb example of this on page 253 where Sasha is nagging Alison to write journals rather than make slides. As the reader you can easily navigate though the argument and understand who is speaking and what the argument is pertaining to.
The first thing that caught my attention was the simple idea of an image that appears when you call someone or if that person calls you. Not only does the picture paint a clearer image in your mind of who you

Dweck also promotes that a lesson can be something that can something creative that its only purpose is to develop a growth mindset in students. These creative methods can be something so simple as playing a video and followed by class discussion to group discussion about their own thoughts/meanings or a simple game of “Memory” in order to engage students to learn in a fun
Using imagery to convey the theme of cultural blending allows the reader to be more immersed into a piece of
In this assignment the practitioner is going to plan and prepare two experiences in which they will implement and evaluate after each of the lesson. These two experiences will be based on current theory, it will be in a form of an appendix to illustrate the two experiences as well as to promote children’s and young people’s thinking skills, creativity and problem solving. Many researchers such as Wilson (2000 cited in Macleod-Brudenell and Kay, 2008, p.323) have suggested that thinking skills are ways in which a child or young person is looking at the problem. To which we use thinking as a way of processing what we as individual know as well as remembering and perceiving. As for the skills this is the way in which we act by collecting and sorting information to help make decisions and reflect after wards (Macleod-Brudenell and Kay, 2008, p.323). This will include the practitioner to use effective approaches as well as evaluate tools, resources which can help to stimulate children and young people learning as well as supporting children development. The term for creativity has been define as being the use of imagination or original ideas to create something; inventiveness (Oxford Dictionary 2013). The definition of the term problem solving has been described as the process of finding solutions to difficult or complex issues (Oxford Dictionary 2013).
Currently, I find myself to use pictures to comprehend new information even a child as well. When I was learning about World War II in middle school, I discovered that the images of the war were very intriguing than reading a textbook in social studies class. In the book, Persepolis, by Marjane Satrapi, this piece of literature included so much history that had been tied into the novel displaying comic strips of what Satrapi imagined from her childhood, what had really happened and the life the people in Iran experienced in times of war. Not only the Iran-Iraq War has images that depict the tragic event, but the Holocaust can be taught through pictures as well. War and human cruelty in an image reveals a thousand words much more superior than
Pictures save time, improve efficiency and provide convenience. In order to keep up with the internet’s fast pace, pictures must possess simplicity. This simplicity allows us to quickly absorb information then move onto the newest meme on the internet. The more pictures we move through, the more internet we surf. The more we internet we surf, the more information we receive. With saving time, pictures also grant us convenience. Instead of buying a ticket to see the northern lights, we can google the different colors in the sky. Instead of visiting our friend, we see a picture on their Facebook wall and know that they are alive. Between running late and juggling responsibilities, pictures provides a rapid glimpse into a constantly updating

In addition, illustration can be primarily used for communication for those who find it difficult to articulate their thoughts or feel separate from them. This means it can help people in the justice system, people with autism and learning difficulties. These illustrative techniques can be used as a form of treatment through perception
