Visual perception is right at the heart of information processing. With our natural preference for visual learning, up to 30 percent more content can be committed to long-term memory.

Visual thinking also stimulates additional regions of the brain.

They integrate various age, education, and development levels. Images are didactic and facilitate knowledge transfer; they work intuitively and associatively.

Graphic recordings can spark discussions while documenting the entire process, leave ample space for further developments and provide a foundation for following debates.

 

One big picture instead of slideshows
One large sized overview will display context and contents side by side, not successively. The central points won’t be covered up by minute details, or clicked away. The large format provides a clear overview, which encourages and facilitates participation, helping to improve group dynamics and increase mutual exchange and understanding.
