"I primarily use Vizucate within the Further Education and Training (FET) Sector where there is a large gap between the text book content and the FET students expectation with regard to content delivery. Vizucate enables me to bring (boring printed) content to life. I can create scenarios that are relevant to the students lives, I use photographs as backdrops for the scenarios that are familiar to the students. The Vizucate characters integrate seamlessly into the real world backdrops and align extremely well with real life people in the scenarios. The students associate positively with the narrative of the Vizucate characters, and through them we breathe life into the content.”

“I find the Vizucate characters ‘student friendly’. It is a novel way in which to transfer content and bring in new dimensions, e.g. different backgrounds, specific content related items/scenarios, different characters talking to each other thus interacting with content which would have been conveyed very boringly by the lecturer. The students find it interesting and often remark that they remember the content better than when it is just a normal chalk and talk class. The students like to read comic strips (we actually house this in our Open Learning Centres) and the content is therefore presented in a comic strip way. The lecturers are very fond of these characters and see it as a way to teach through a ‘3rd’ person. They often remark that the students are more engaged, focused and quiet during the online lesson than during a normal lecture.”
