I very little about visual literacy beyond a basic understanding of compositing and art history. That is why I was so interested in taking this class.

I know that Visual Literacy includes the ability to interpret and analyze images. It can strengthen critical thinking. I know historical photos can be interesting to analyze and I look forward to learning more ways to develop my skills.

This is the first time that I have formally heard of the term "visual literacy".

Visual literacy is having the knowledge and background to confidently and competently analyze a piece of art.

Visual literacy is the ability to understand and interpret the meaning of images. It helps people recognize how visuals tell a story and the deeper meanings behind each detail.

I don't know much about visual literacy, but from the overview, I understand that it could be a way to interpret and analyze images. You grasp a deeper look into these images.

it is challenging to teach visual literacy in such an ocularcentric world where people are saturated by instagram, interesting ideas about color, and not much about the art history or the tools necessary for visual literacy

I am unsure of what this means, but to take a guess, maybe to understand something visual that can be interpreted without having a whole spiel about it?

t means being able to analyze how and why it was made, what message it conveys, and how it might influence the viewer. In art, photography, film, advertising, and digital media, visual literacy helps us understand both explicit content (what we literally see) and implicit meaning (the deeper ideas or social messages).

Visual literacy has been introduced to me before. The formal patterns such as the rule of thirds is familiar, and some intuitive reading of the aesthetics of images,but I am excited to learn more

I can make guesses, but would not say that Iam literate.

As far as I know visual literacy means being able to understand visual things like art work.

For me visual literacy is a way to look at a image and make an interpretation of the way it was taken, patterns used, the space and textures and what the message maybe conveying to the one observing the image.

Visual literacy is the ability to interpret, analyze, and create meaning from images, symbols, and visual messages in the world around us.

what I know about visual understanding is taking something that you’re looking at like a photo for example and deconstructing it so that you understand it and even come up with a meaning for it.
