VISUALIZING

VISUALIZATION

Visualization is a strategy in which students try to make sense of the


text by imaginary drawing in their mind. It lest the learners stay
focused on the text that they read or being read to them. When this
strategy is used to develop reading literacy, it develops in students’
motivation and interest to read text by forming an image of the
character in the text in their mind. According to Musdizal, (2019),
the study concluded that there is a significant effect of using
visualization strategy toward students’ reading comprehension.
VISUALIZATION

• Visualization is creating pictures in our mind as we


read. It becomes an important way to comprehend our
reading material. When you visualize, you should think
about the smells, sounds, tastes, sights, and even the
feelings. You can think about it as making a movie of the
material as you read it, (Surber, Katie). 
VISUALIZATION

Visualization brings the reading to life. First, it makes it easier for


us to understand the text because we are looking beyond the
words and creating images. Through the images, we are able to
recall the material much easier. Second, it helps you feel more
connected to the material. You are able to see the characters and
their actions and feel as if you are a part of the scene.
Finally, it creates a more personal experience and even links you
with the story. By imagining the characters and the setting, you
are becoming more involved in the story (Surber, Katie).
Suber states that in visualizing, one is making the passage into a
movie. Consider all five senses as well as any other details the
author includes. When passage is read or when learners read a
passage, they create a picture in the mind of the scene. Then
begin to add in the characters, the smells, the tastes, and what the
character may be touching. Readers or learners use the author’s
details to do such, but can also use imagination – however one
thinks could best remember the scene.
