| Popis | The aim of the article is to show how conscious inclusion of visual content and pictorial self-disclosure may positively influence the learning experience of students in distance learning. Online courses, regardless of whether taken voluntarily or not, are not conducive to forming personal relationships, be it among the course participants themselves or between the course participants and the teacher. Student well-being and community building have therefore become increasingly important considerations in designing any teaching materials, and language courses are no exception. This article outlines how visual representations may help to build and sustain good working relationships among learners and to boost their motivation. |
