Images That Transform: Analyzing Visual Culture That Changes People's Minds

Abstract

Images are becoming pervasive on local and global levels. Through advertising, video games, fine art, television, movies, and other forms of imagery, viewers may now encounter more information through visual sources than they do through written texts. Not only do people have more access to imagery now than in the past; they see greater numbers of images with increasing sophistication and complexity. And yet, the educational possibilities of visual culture are used at only a fraction of their potential in school.
