Abstract

This qualitative study investigated the importance of utilizing visual presentations in class reporting, focusing on their impact on idea retention, understanding, and student engagement among forty Grade 11 students at Biabas Trade High School. The findings conclusively demonstrate that visual aids provide a significant and multifaceted positive impact, acting as cognitive supports that optimize learning. For idea retention, visuals transform abstract concepts into organized, memorable structures, which aids recall. For understanding, they are transformative, converting complex material into concrete representations that facilitate logical comprehension and the connection of ideas. Furthermore, well-designed visuals are a potent tool for engagement, capturing attention and motivating active participation. However, the study issues a critical caveat: the effectiveness of these benefits is entirely contingent on design quality, as poorly constructed visuals actively hinder deep thinking. Recommendations call for the active training of students in design principles, the systematic integration of high-quality visuals into the curriculum, and the allocation of resources for professional development and technological infrastructure.

Keywords: Visual Presentations, idea retention, student engagement, understanding, qualitative research, cognitive load, dual-coding
