When it comes to online learning, visual communication plays and important role. We all know ‘A picture is worth a thousand words’. You can visually connect to students much better with graphics. The graphical elements will always catch students’/viewers’ attention first and draw them to your text. And design does not necessarily mean simple images. Adding interactivity and finding ways to engage students is also part of designing and enhancing your course. Good design will help you make an extra connection with your students. It will set a different tone and style for your course.

The various examples demonstrated in this poster make a powerful visual statement of the same.
