Visual Thinking Strategies (VTS) were developed by Abigail Housen and Phillip Yanawine. VTS is a new concept in the art education field, and it is considered to be an effective tool not only to develop students' artistic ability but also cultivate their critical thinking ability and communication skills. At the VTS session, a facilitator asks students one question, "What's going on in this picture?" The facilitator paraphrases their statements and helps them continue the discussion. This paper discusses the possibility for the application of VTS in Japanese education and a case study to examine it.
