An Analysis of The Permanent Visuals in Primary Schools According Their Topic, Utility and Effectiveness

Abstract

The aim of this study is to identify how permanent visuals in primary schools classified according their topic and the utility of those visuals on students. Multi-case design had been determined by purposeful sampling and maximum variation sampling techniques. The data for the analyses were obtained from interviews with the focus group and photographic images from the schools in Izmir, Turkey. According to the findings, visuals (pictures, sayings, etc.) representing nationalism and patriotism values are dominant in schools. Among the visuals, it is rarer to observe scientists, national and international literary, EU educational policies, philosophic people, artists and women figures. Visuals are not diversified, not up-to-date and won’t focus on children’s needs. Awareness to visuals is found as low and legal policies are insufficient. 

Keywords
