Photographs: Teaching Abstract Concepts in a Visual Way with Kim Moore
KSU ESOL ConferenceFebruary 4, 2016
Photography can be utilized as a tool for encouraging:
• Social Interaction• Vocabulary Development • Academic Content
A camera is to a photographer as background knowledge is to an English learner.
They are both about bringing concepts and ideas into focus.
