Adapting Materials for Visual Learners

For visual learners, ITTT recommends incorporating visual aids such as charts, graphs, and videos into lesson materials. These visual representations can help reinforce concepts and improve comprehension for students who learn best through visual stimuli.

Adapting Materials for Auditory Learners

To support auditory learners, ITTT suggests including audio recordings, podcasts, and verbal instructions in adapted materials. By providing auditory cues and explanations, teachers can better engage and support students who learn through listening.
