Visual Spatial Learning Styles - How Visual Spatial Learning Styled People Learn Best


People with visual spatial intelligence learn best when taught using written, modeled, or diagrammed instruction and visual media. Visually and spatially talented students have good visual memory for details(Logsdon, 2014)

Picture Smart

  • Virtual Time Lines
  • Blogs
  • Visual Media/Youtube
  • 3D Software Programs

One way I would integrate technology in my content area is by doing virtual timelines.

Virtual Time lines would allow students to see how science or history has progressed over the years so they not only read about the subject they can see the subject matter at hand.

Create beautiful timelines



Tiki-Toki is web-based software for creating beautiful interactive timelines that you can share on the internet.

Online Blogging would allow a student to visualize what they are typing and see what they put down so they are able to make changes before handing in an assignment.

By using Virtual Media I could take the students on Virtual Field Trips by Pre-Planning Videos off the internet.

I could also do projects in which the students have to do a Virtual Field Trip and present that to the class.

These days, more schools are using videoconferencing to lead virtual field trips to traditional venues, such as museums and zoos, as well as to more exotic realms.(Virtual Field Trips)

The Last Way I would use technology for visual/spacial needs is by using 3D Technology

3D Technology would allow students to build a historical character or make a science project come to life.

Lastly this site Haikudeck is a great way for a student to present a project using visual/spatial intelligence.

This site lets them build a presentation that they can see on many multi-media devices.
