Interactive Graphic

In the Interactive Graphic teaching strategy, the student is presented a graphic image. This graphic image could be a photograph, a line drawing, or something in between. The graphic image could be a photograph or other representation of a piece of equipment, or a chart or graph. What make the Interactive Graphic strategy interactive is that the student has the ability to move the cursor over various components of the graphic and information concerning the specific areas will be displayed.

Two common examples of uses for Interactive Graphics are:

  1. To learn the components of a piece of equipment by moving the mouse over specific parts and viewing the presentation on the part that the student needs to become more familiar with or learn how to operate.
  2. To learn more about components in a chart, such as an organization chart where the student needs to learn the job roles and who currently occupies the specific positions.
