I love the design of the posters from a personal and professional perspective. They are colourful and contain interesting graphical and written facts. This is a very engaging teaching aid. We used it with some reluctant learners in small groups to teach the topic. The lesson has become one of the most memorable experiences for students and is demonstrated in their prompt recall of information that was in the posters, months after the lesson took place. Thank you!
