Abstract

In the first theoretical part, the importance of images in religious instruction was shown. Here are important: addressees, society, science. An American investigation showed: that the greatest effectiveness in memory, after three days, is 65% when we with teach audiovisual media. Clarity is more understandable and memorable than concepts. Didactic-methodical considerations concerned: Selection of the images and their didactic location. methodology of the image closure had four indications: images must be used as a means of communication, as liberation, to serve as a reinforcement of the word and as an illustration of the religious dimension. The teaching model of Thomas Zacharias had three steps: – Spontaneous perception, – Analysis of the formal structures and - analysis of the content structure. As a practical example (slide), the pictures were: "Moses receiving the Tablets of the Law" by Marc Chagall and The Good Shepherd by Thomas Zacharias. The images can directly relate biblical themes to today's possible circumstances and situations transpose.
