Abstract

Visualization plays an essential role in optimizing teaching methods. In the proposed method, the solution of similarity and contradiction in image creation in education is introduced. There is a special connection between two images in the form of a card. Images express a special scientific point, but at the same time, there are similarities and contradictions on both sides of the card. The purpose of this method is to increase the attractiveness, create motivation in the learning process, which helps to strengthen the visual-cognitive skills of students. These cards can be used individually or in groups. The proposed idea can be used not only for teaching, but also for evaluating the students’ learning level. Various test methods are also introduced at the advanced level. According to the cognitive table of Bloom’s theory, with the help of this method, the student’s learning level in the cognitive field can be measured in the middle and upper levels of this pyramid. The experience obtained from several years of implementing this method shows the excellent participation of students. In a survey, proper persistence in the mind and better understanding of scientific materials are among the prominent advantages of the proposed method.
