Visual Literacy
Tutorial about Visual Literacy A Periodic Table of Visualization Methods Visual Literacy K-8 for classrooms

__**For Higher Education**__ Visual literacy is a set of abilities that enables an individual to effectively find, interpret, evaluate, use, and create images and visual media. Visual literacy skills equip a learner to understand and analyze the contextual, cultural, ethical, aesthetic, intellectual, and technical components involved in the production and use of visual materials. A visually literate individual is both a critical consumer of visual media and a competent contributor to a body of shared knowledge and culture.
 * Visual Literacy Defined**

In an interdisciplinary, higher education environment, a visually literate individual is able to: •Determine the nature and extent of the visual materials needed •Find and access needed images and visual media effectively and efficiently •Interpret and analyze the meaning of images and visual media •Critically evaluate images and their sources •Use images and visual media effectively •Design and create meaningful images and visual media •Understand many of the ethical, legal, social, and economic issues surrounding the creation and use of images and visual media, and access and use visual materials ethically
