Visual literacy is about reading, writing, creating, analyzing, interpreting, and evaluating visual information. It consists of understanding the elements of a visual language. These elements could be colour, composition, context, etc. It is an essential skill in today's time, where we are surrounded by images and other visuals all around us.
Meanwhile, critical thinking refers to the ability to analyze and evaluate information to make informed decisions. Both visual literacy and critical thinking go hand in hand. Visual literacy plays a primary role in critical thinking because it allows the audience to examine and question the visual content. Developing visual literacy is essential to become more discerning visual media consumers and better decision-makers based on the content provided.
