Unleash Your Visual Genius on 5 Jun 2023
During the June holidays, 15 children attended a run of our workshop, ‘Unleash Your Visual Genius’, at Agora Co-learning Space. Based on the latest discoveries in vision science, we showed kids how thinking with pictures can help them solve common problems they might face in their daily lives.
As the children learnt the visual strategies, they applied their knowledge to scenarios such as how to plan a year-end party, how to make science concepts easy to remember and how to solve a personal problem.
We had an active group of children, and they asked many questions as they practised how to use Dan Roam’s Visual Thinking toolkits during hands-on activities. We had lots of fun together while conducting the workshop.
Here are some pictures from the workshop.
