Promoting visual learning is the educational task of today. Exploiting speech act theory in the domain of visuality is necessary for meeting that challenge. To teach with pictures and learn through pictures is a practical enterprise where thinking is embedded in doing. Postmodern or conservative, education has to face the problem of pictoriality.
Pictorial meaning involves not just resemblance, but also pictorial skills, pictorial acts, practices, and performance. Especially in the classroom setting, at all levels of education, it is essential to realize that teaching with pictures and learning through pictures is a practical enterprise where thinking is embedded in doing. Promoting visual learning means to be a visionary, and to take on an enormous educational challenge. But while adaptation and innovation are inevitable in a world where technological changes are rapidly and radically altering the learning environment, educational science and the everyday practice of education clearly need to retain a measure of conservatism. And any conservatism worth the name has to take account of visuality, visual thinking, and visual learning.
