Of course, visual learning refers not only to a learning style, but to a teaching style as well. Studies show that students are generally aided in a significant way by visual information that is simple to create on a learning management system. These include diagrams, graphs, and web and concept maps. Though it helps is students are actually creating the graphic organizers, diagrams designed on a learning management system are also proven to be effective learning tools.

While students absorb the learning content of your course, they can also become more ICT literate with the integration of programs like PowerPoint and Excel. Many learning management systems also include tools like flash cards and web publishing. Other dynamic learning devices include mapping tools like Google Earth, Google Streetview, Google Sky, and Google SketchUp.
