Visual literacy

Everything in this course starts with visual literacy. I fact wihtout visual literacy, we would not have the ability to build knowledge visually.

Which means that visual literacy is the ability to interpretate, negotiate and make meaning from iniformation presented in the form of an image. Visual literacy is based on the idea that pictures can be 'read' and that the meaning of that image can be communicated through a process of reading.

There are eight morphological forms of visual grammar, these are:

• dots
• colors
• texture
• space
• forms
• values
• lines
• shaps
