After defining visual literacy and metaliteracy, this session will delve into why learners need both the Framework for Visual Literacy for Higher Education and the Metaliteracy framework to effectively navigate the increasingly visual information environment. We will provide an overview of our mapping methodology, including how social justice is centered in the visual literacy framework but only assumed in the metaliteracy framework. We will describe practical examples of how both frameworks may be used in tandem during educational activities, and then participants will be encouraged to discuss how they might revise their lesson plans to incorporate metaliteracy goals and objectives.
