Visual Thinking Strategies Workshop, Saturday, December 3, 2011, 10 am - 4 pm

Visual Thinking Strategies (VTS) is a student-centered, research-based teaching method that improves critical thinking and language skills through the discussions of visual images. VTS encourages participation and self-confidence, especially among students who struggle in traditional learning environments. VTS is easy to learn and offers a proven strategy for educators to meet current learning objectives.

This one-day workshop provides an introduction to VTS with hands-on practice in the Frye Art Museum galleries. The workshop is open to all educators including teachers, professors, parent docents, teaching artists, and museum educators. 

It will be led by Deborah Sepulveda, Frye Art Museum Art Educator; Jill Hardy, Frye Art Museum Coordinator of Youth, Student, and Teacher Programs; and Sarah Lenoue, VTS Trainer.

Sarah Lenoue recently moved to Shoreline, to the Briarcrest neighborhood near her parents, Bettelinn and Charles Brown of Shoreline.
