ED4123- Assignment 2- Pictures Make History Real

Pictures are a simple way to illustrate a point. Showing photographs of an area or event helps the student put various facts into perspective and stimulate the spatial and visual intelligence and of the student group, (Bochner, Duchesne and Krause, 2003,p 201). It is easier to remember information when it is associated with an idea so photographs help do this simply and easily. I have chosen my personal holiday snaps of historic sights and buildings to bring history to the group. I have seen these places and therefore would present them to the students as evidence of a particular event or place in history.
