Learning by seeing, teaching by figures, #edcmooc


Teaching by painting, teaching by images... it is not new! Listen to our forfathers...


How did people learn in the ancient world? 
Looking at the images! There were a lot of teaching! Just think on the paintings and sculptures of a Church in the Middle Ages....
People didn´t read but they listen to the priest and they watch the figures around them in the walls. They learn de Scriptures from all those pictures and images. The written word wasn´t as important as it becomes to be after, in the Gutenberg period of our History.


Can we say now that we are going back to the pre-Guttenberg period in which listen and wathing (now in video, multimedia and so) were the prior access fro learning?
