Visual Learning
-
Peace.
As someone who learns best visually, I learn in terms of images and need to be exposed to or create vivid mental images to retain information. Living in the West, I am exposed to the documenteries of patriarchs published by Christian media houses and other religiously themed films, illustrated and visually-friendly Bibles, and of course, Christian iconography. However, I find there to be a lack of these same types of things in Islam. Although reading the Qur'an is fine, I love to have secondary visual resources to re-inforce Islamic lessons and values. Having stumbled across a few Islamic flash presentations, online shorts, etc. I find these to be a great tool to help me learn and retain information. If anyone has online resources for Islamic visual aids, such as links to flash demos, pictures, movies, basically anything that can be visually observed, if you could share your favorite online and offline content both, that would be great. Thanks!
