Manual
Visual Impact
Welcome to Visual Impact. This manual unfolds a tale that commences in Autumn 2023, marked by the launch of the "Digital and Graphical Skills for Youth Workers" mobility of youth workers initiative by the Together Romania Association under the Erasmus+.
Aims of the tool
Through this publication, we extend an invitation for you to embark on a delightful journey into the realm of Graphic Facilitation (GF) and Visual Thinking (VT) as we perceive and comprehend it. Our aim is to infuse this experience with enjoyable and inspiring moments that may potentially alter your approach to work and cognition. It could even transform how you perceive the world and yourself as an artist.
Description of the tool
We believe that in our daily context, graphic facilitation and visual thinking constitutes great learning support in youth work. It is a way to answer the needs of our target audience who bases the learning and the information acquisition process on visual input. We are also used to being stimulated by visual input every day, our brain is well prepared for that and grasps information very quickly, regardless of dominant learning style. Supporting a presentation, project, meeting or process with visuals (such as posters, symbols, special kinds of lettering, drawings, colors, etc.) can be a great help in youth work and can make communication with the target recipient(s) easier and more effective.
Our aspiration is to motivate you to step away from your customary adult and professional routines, reconnect with your inner child, and (re)explore your innate capacity to communicate and express ideas visually. Together, we will delve into the vast possibilities of visual language, offering initial steps, recommendations and helpful activities to translate concepts onto paper and integrate visual tools into your personal and educational endeavors.
