2. DEFINITION
All materials used in the classroom or in other teachig
situations to facilitate the understanding of the written or
spoken word are called AUDIO VISUAL AIDS

3. Audiovisual aids are defined as any device used to aid in the communication of an idea.
From this definition, virtually anything can be used as an aid, providing it successfully com-
municates the idea or information for which it is designed. In this chapter, we not only use the
term “Audiovisual Aids” but “Instructional Aids,” “Teaching Aids,” “Audio Aids,” and
“Visual Aids” as well. An audiovisual product is any audiovisual (AV) item such as still
photography, motion picture, audio or video tape, slide or filmstrip, that is prepared singly or
in combination to communicate information or to elicit a desired audience response. Even
though early aids, such as maps and drawings, are still in use, advances in the audiovisual field have
opened up new methods of presenting these aids, such as videotapes and multimedia equip-
ment which allow more professional and enter- taining presentations to be presented. Most of
the visual aids covered in this chapter can be grouped into the following categories—nonpro-
jected aids and projected aids. NONPROJECTED AIDS Nonprojected aids are those that do not
require the use of audiovisual equipment such as a projector and screen. Included in this category
are charts, graphs, maps, illustrations, photographs, brochures, and handouts. Charts
Charts are in common use almost every- where. A chart is a diagram which shows rela-
tionships. An example of a chart is shown in figure 7-2. The organizational chart is one of the
most widely used. This chart shows the various branches of a particular organization. Air and sea
maps that are used for navigation purposes are also charts. 7-4
