Résumé

This research establishes the need to train primary school teachers in visual literacy. It initiated from an exploratory study which analyzed the learning process of pupils in order to evaluate the educational possibilities of visual culture, using a case study as methodology, and Arts-Based Educational Research which involved one hundred university students. The objective was to evaluate the benefits of using a creative arts workshop aimed at future primary school teachers, integrating issues of identity and social themes. Among the outcomes, what stands out is the motivation of the students for the use of graphic design, given that each student was able to create their own ex-libris (book-plate). We work to support the encouragement of future teachers’ creativity.
