“…Images began replacing words as the token of information exchage” (Restak 67). Restak feels that texts may not be as important in today’s changing society.

” Images reinforced by recorded sound, take the place of words, numbers, and other ciphers with which humans have traditionally communicated.” (Restak 68)- Imagesmay soon be used in education as the main source of information, instead of texts.

“According to a study carried out at NINDS by Marina Nakic, merely viewing violent or aggressive images such as those routinely encountered on television and in movies, is sufficient to activate the prefrontal cortex” (Restak 69). This could represent a startling number of people who may seem to be normal, but are severely affected by simply seeing a particular incident.

” When encountering images of emotional neutral or positive scenes the hemispheres remain in balance.” (Restak 72)

” While words on a page open us up to ideas and communication with others, images do not reveal ideas as thoroughly as words do and offer only elemental communication with others.” (Restak 74) Images would be interpreted differently based on who is viewing them, therefore, can have no significant value in education.
