Visual Literacy and ReadingIn The Reading Teacher – Multiple Perspectives About Reading, Giogis et.al. (1999) state that “a picture book must have both an engaging story as well as appealing art. The two work in concert to create meaning through transaction with the reader”.
Visual literacy, defined as the ability to construct meaning from visual images, is developed, practised and enhanced through early reading.
The enGauge 21st Century Skills: Literacy in the Digital Age report of 2003 positions visual literacy as one of four key domains of skills essential for academic achievement

Measuring Visual Literacy –
Visual identification
Visual discrimination
![Page 28: 2015.09.09.learning gains through play](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070522/58eeaf891a28ab63308b45db/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Visual interpretation
Measuring Visual Literacy –
Emotion knowledge

Visual Literacy – research so far …
• Grade 1 groups perform better than Grade R groups
• Both control groups’ show consistent achievement
• Both project groups’ improved significantly
![Page 30: 2015.09.09.learning gains through play](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070522/58eeaf891a28ab63308b45db/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Visual Discrimination – • Grade 1 groups
perform better than Grade R groups
• Both Grade R groups’ show small improvements
• The project groups’ have overtaken the control groups in 2015
![Page 31: 2015.09.09.learning gains through play](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070522/58eeaf891a28ab63308b45db/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Visual Interpretation – • Grade 1 groups
perform a little better than Grade R groups
• Control groups show a variable change of 10-11%
• Project groups’ show an upward change of
• 25-36%
![Page 32: 2015.09.09.learning gains through play](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070522/58eeaf891a28ab63308b45db/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Visual Literacy – • Both cohorts improved in all
aspects of visual literacy measured - as expected
• Improvements in control cohort varied between 6-51%
• Improvements in project cohort varied between 0-67%
• Largest project gains were in visual discrimination of words and visual sequencing
