摘要：It is aimed to reveal the level of understanding messages send by graphical symbols and to make
a study that would compensate for missing learning of students who study at eighth class. An
activity was conducted in which a single group pre-test and post test pattern method was used
with 58 students studying in eight class of Alata Secondary School in Erdemli district of Mersin
within this context. At the beginning of the process, “Matching Questions for Understanding the
Messages of Graphical Symbols Correctly” has been applied as pre-test to the students. A video
had been prepared by the researcher and which contains the importance, purpose of using and
the meanings of graphical symbols they encounter in their schools and products they buy from
school canteen was showed after the test. Finally the matching questions were applied to the
students again as post test. In findings, these have been found that the students were not aware
of the meanings of all the graphical symbols they already met but the activity based on the
prepared video developed the skills of understanding the messages of graphical symbols
correctly. It is thought that these study conducted could provide data for those who will research
on visual reading, in particular teaching of graphical symbols.
