See It Right!

Today's post will cover an interesting new area I came across.  I colleague of mine is exploring the use of color transparencies to help students who struggle with visual perception.  I wanted to post a link here in the hopes that the information would prove useful to some of our visual spatial learners who may also have troubles with perception and graphic representations.

Please explore the research here:

Here is an informational video on YouTube:

The website provides additional information about this fascinating area of exploration and research.  Recently, I had the chance to watch a few students sampling the tool kit.  One student commented that when he read the black letters on the white background the letters "moved around."  But when an aquamarine transparency was placed over the same text, he commented that it "sealed it up."  It will be interesting to continue to read and follow the development of these tools and to explore their practical application.
