Images

I am a very visual learner and believe that images can be some of the most useful tools of learning. The following images are some that conjure up strong feelings in me when I look at them. In my class, I will be using a lot of powerful imagery in connection with my lessons in the hopes of making my students' learning experience as rich as possible.
