Teaching With Visual Frameworks
This book provides a guide to visual instruction and assessment using the Unit Visual Framework (UVF). Combining pictures, color, and text for meaningful representation of the core concepts in a unit of study, UVFs result in a deepened understanding by all students, regardless of language level. The manual includes specific steps and suggestions for designing effective UVFs, real-life examples from classrooms successfully using these visual displays, tips for utilizing UVFs in standards-led instruction and student-directed learning, and more than 100 sample graphics and UVFs. Seven chapters discuss: (1) "Unit Visual Framework: Making Ongoing Sense of a Unit of Study"; (2) "Focus: The Basis for Coherence and Cohesion"; (3) "Getting Started"; (4) "Co-Development and Ownership: Essential Requirements"; (5) "Visual Consistencies: Cohesion Building Blocks"; (6) "A Teacher's Story: Moving from Beginning to Experienced Use of UVFs"; and (7) "Getting the Results You Want." Three appendixes contain a structured student interview, teaching with UVFs implementation rubric, and software and hardware resources. (Contains 42 references.) (SM).
