The role and function of images in everyday teaching activity have been highlighted by many researchers, given the contribution which these images make to the process of acquiring and retaining knowledge. This study examines the views of secondary-school teachers on the use of transformative images when teaching lessons. The findings show that teachers use transformative images when teaching since they are aiming at the various benefits provided by these images. However, they have colleagues who do not share this view, whilst providing arguments in support of their opinion.
