Speech On Viewing Skills

Viewing is an important language skill that helps children with language development. It allows students to slow down, reflect on images, and develop skills to analyze and evaluate visual texts.

SPEECH ON VIEWING SKILLS

Kids nowadays are digital natives, and one way to help with their language development is through
watching good-quality educational videos. Not a lot of parents realize that viewing is a skill. But it is considered a
language skill because it will greatly help children with their language development.

Viewing helps students slow down, reflect and think about the images they are seeing and develop
the knowledge and skills to analyze and evaluate visual text and multimedia texts that use visuals. Viewing
also helps students acquire information and appreciate ideas and experiences visually communicated by
others.
Just as reading, writing, speaking, and viewing entails giving attention to facts, relationships,
inferences, and critical analysis. Students can learn to “read” the pictures, diagrams, tables, maps, and
charts. This skill will provide them with increased information about the materials because many materials
today; cannot be accurately interpreted without graphics. And many books are incomplete without pictures.

Some concept of viewing is the ability to interpret the meaning of visual images, Giorgis (1999). As
students are used to visual messages, they need to use a range of viewing skills and strategies to make
sense of the images that come together with oral and print language. In short, students connect meanings
in the messages to their prior knowledge and experiences.

As educators, we should provide many opportunities for our students to view daily, helping them recognize
the different forms visual text can take including an advertisement, book covers, puppet plays, online
magazines, paintings, photographs, videos, and many more.

These activities strengthen our students' viewing abilities. Like Gallery walk, it allows students to
view others' work like displays, illustrations, photos, and multimedia presentations. Drama and Puppet play
can be wonderful means of encouraging oral communication, writing, critical thinking, listening, and
viewing. But in giving different activities, a teacher must give proper guidance and explicit instruction to
develop active and critical viewing skills and strategies.

There are three stages of viewing skills that will help students. First is the previewing stage. It
answers the question of what. Like, what do you already know about the topic? What do you want to learn
from this topic or videos? It is your prior knowledge of a topic, video or short video, film, or story. The
second stage is the viewing stage. In this stage, you can answer the questions, who, where, when, why,
and how. You can understand the topic, videos, or story. The last stage is the post-viewing stage. You can
share or give comments, conclusions, and reactions about the topic, story, or about videos.

Viewing skills is important for the students to learn and engage in different activities because they
understand. Through viewing skills, it encourages them to learn with eagerness because they can
understand the process or the topic is given.
