We all love to chat using emoji, share memes, et up beautiful profile pictures and share "edited" photographs on social media and thus our ability to successfully do so indicates our catch on visual literacy skills. In simple word visual literacy is the ability to read, write and create images. We use these skills for thinking, understanding, visualizing, communicating and expressing our thoughts and ideas. The drawings on the prehistoric caves, the signs and symbols of the hieroglyphs, tells us how long of a process it has been. Considering the idea that visual images are a language, some authors consider visual literacy to be more of a metaphor, relating imagery interpretation to conventional literacy, than a teachable skill. A human being can develop these skills by seeing the imagery and at the same time having and integrating other sensory experiment. The development of these skills is fundamental to the normal human learning. It is remarkable that this field is credited with the development of educational programs that enhance students' abilities to interpret and create visual messages, as well as improvement of reading and writing skills through the use of visual imagery.
In this paper we would see a broad overview of the concept of visual literacy, focusing on its interdisciplinary nature, learning how to develop visual literacy skills, promoting visual literacy and teaching these skills to children without them even realizing it!
