Introduction
• • Visual elements help make information
easier to understand.
• • They are used in Science, Math, and
Technical topics.
• • Examples include vectors, viewpoint,
technical editing, and animations.
• • These visuals make learning clear and
interesting.
Lesson Objectives
• After this lesson, you will be able to:
• 1. Identify different visual elements used in
informational texts.
• 2. Explain how vectors, viewpoint, technical
editing, and animations help deliver meaning.
• 3. Use examples to show how these visuals
work.
What Are Visual Elements?
• • Visual elements are tools that make
information easier to see and understand.
• • They include arrows, diagrams, labels, and
animations.
• • They help organize ideas, show direction,
and explain movement or change.
Vectors
• Meaning:
• A vector is an arrow that shows direction,
movement, or force.
• Examples:
• • In Science: arrows showing airplane or wind
direction.
• • In Math: lines showing magnitude and
direction.
Viewpoint
• Meaning:
• Viewpoint shows where or how something is
seen.
• Examples:
• • Top view of a volcano shows shape.
• • Side view shows height and lava flow.
• Purpose:
Technical Editing
• Meaning:
• Technical editing checks and fixes visuals or
texts for accuracy.
• Examples:
• • Correcting a mislabeled diagram.
• • Fixing wrong data in a chart.
• Purpose:
Animations
• Meaning:
• Animations are moving pictures that show
changes or processes over time.
• Examples:
• • The Earth orbiting the Sun.
• • Water cycle animation.
• Purpose:
Summary Table
• Vector – Shows direction or motion (arrows in
science diagrams)
• Viewpoint – Shows different sides or angles
(top or side view)
• Technical Editing – Corrects and clarifies
visuals (fixes labels)
• Animation – Shows movement or process
(Earth orbiting the Sun)
Activity
• Identify the Visual Element:
• 1. Arrows show wind movement. → _______
• 2. Top and side view of a volcano. → _______
• 3. Diagram label corrected. → _______
• 4. Earth revolving around the Sun. → _______
Quiz
• 1. Which visual element shows direction and
movement?
• a) Viewpoint b) Vector c) Animation d)
Editing
• 2. Which visual element shows different sides
of an object?
• a) Vector b) Animation c) Viewpoint d)
Editing
Conclusion
• Visual elements help readers understand and
remember information.
• They make learning clearer, more accurate,
and more interesting.
• Using vectors, viewpoint, technical editing,
and animations helps explain ideas effectively.
