Seminar paper from the year 2010 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: A, Southern Illinois University Carbondale (Curriculum & Instruction), language: English, abstract: In the history of teaching, different kinds of visual literacies could be shown beneficial for students; it need not be a whole novel rendered in pictures, it can start with simple letter recognition.
