Digital Visual Literacy : The Librarian's Quick Guide, Paperback / softback Book

Digital Visual Literacy : The Librarian's Quick Guide Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Designed to introduce visual literacy to instructional librarians, this book shows librarians how to make visual literacy relevant and engaging by framing it as a digital skill. Millions of images are uploaded to social media every day, and students are increasingly being asked to participate in such image-rich research projects as websites and blogs.

Image manipulation and photo editing are commonplace, but the visual literacy skills needed to detect that kind of misinformation aren't. Students need help learning how to find, evaluate, and use images in an ethical and effective manner.

Digital Visual Literacy is designed to introduce visual literacy to instructional librarians.

This concise introduction teaches visual literacy as a digital skill, complete with digital humanities-based workshops and assignments to make instruction informative and engaging.

It covers all aspects of visual literacy, from copyright to image evaluation.

Each chapter clearly explains visual literacy standards and proficiencies and offers practical instructional assignments, in-class demonstrations, and more through the use of digital humanities tools.
