Abstract

One of the main criticisms against road safety educational programs has been that these programs are not evaluated properly. This paper aims to discuss the value that children s drawings have as an evaluative tool. Drawings (posters) are one of the most popular ways in which children choose to demonstrate their knowledge about road safety. An image is an aspect or dimension of a conscious experience. Drawings can become an important medium for human insight. Children s drawings ought to be considered due to the cognitive information they contain relating to memory, knowledge retention, the recall of information, as well as, the display of knowledge through their drawings.
