Robert O'Halloran, Cynthia S. Deale
Through photos and photography experiences students can learn about specific content, photography, observational skills, research, and writing skills (Carroll, 2005). In this increasingly visual world it is more important than ever to help students apply critical thinking skills to address visual stimuli. This article focuses on a photo interpretation study and offers teaching techniques using photo imagery and its support technology to enhance students' learning experiences. In this pilot study, students' impressions of photos of several hospitality industry scenes were evaluated to explore what they observed in the photos.
