Aligning Outcomes
Visual Literacy
Knowledge of Visual Conventions
Students will be able to “recognize visual signs and symbols and their
socially agreed meaning.”
Trinity’s IL Goals
Understand & Access
Students will 1) recognize when information is required and 2) will develop or deploy
strategies to access the information.

Analyze an Image for Visual Conventions
In groups of three, make a list of all of the things you see in the image provided. How are the
items in your list “symbolic” and does this symbolism effect your analysis?
Based on your analysis, can you conduct additional research to enhance your
understanding of the image?

Aligning Outcomes
Visual Literacy
Critical Viewing
Students will be able to “apply critical thinking skills to visuals.”
Trinity’s IL Goals
Evaluate
Students recognize “the cultural, physical or other context within which the information was created and understand the impact of context on interpreting the information.” (ACRL Standards)
