Abstract

The visual rhetoric training at Senior High School 12 Surabaya is a workshop that enhances the teachers’ and students’ critical thinking abilities to influence their intended audiences. The training was organized at Senior High School 12 Surabaya due to the teachers’ and students’ enthusiasm to improve their comprehension skills in creating learning materials and posters involving images and visual elements. The teachers focused on improving their learning materials, and the student’s goal was to develop their skills in making persuasive posters. The workshop had three sessions: a training implementation, a practical assignment, and an evaluation session. The training applied Canva, Adobe Photoshop, and others to create learning materials and posters integrated with QR codes to simplify the content and posters. A qualitative method was used for this research, where the participants’ responses regarding the workshop’s viability were collected. Those responses represented authentic descriptive illustrations from the participants. They also reflected the participants’ understandings, challenges, criticisms, and input for future improvements.
