Who authored the educational book "Orbis Pictus"?

  1. John Dewey

  2. Johann Amos Comenius

  3. Jean Piaget

  4. Lev Vygotsky

The correct answer is: Johann Amos Comenius

The educational book "Orbis Pictus," also known as "The Visible World," was authored by Johann Amos Comenius, a Czech philosopher and educator of the 17th century. This work is notable for being one of the first illustrated textbooks for children and emphasizes the importance of visual learning as a means of education. Comenius believed that education should be accessible and engaging for young learners, and "Orbis Pictus" was designed to present information through images along with text, fostering a deeper understanding of the world. His approach to education laid the groundwork for modern educational methods that advocate for visual aids and experiential learning in the classroom.
