“Using Digital Images in Teaching and Learning,”

-commissioned by Wesleyan University in collaboration with the National Institute for Technology and Liberal Education (NITLE)

The study focuses on the pedagogical implications of the widespread use of the digital format. However, while changes in the teaching-learning dynamic and the teacher-student relationship were at the core of the study, related issues concerning supply, support and infrastructure rapidly became part of its fabric. These topics include the quality of image resources, image functionality, management, deployment and the skills required for optimum use (digital and image “literacies”).
