Abstract
-
The study examines how visual literacy is practiced, taught, and understood in higher education. It serves as an introduction to a special issue that focuses on the role of visual literacy in university teaching and research. The article argues that visual literacy has become increasingly important because modern communication and knowledge production rely heavily on images, visual media, and multimodal forms of expression. Universities therefore need to help students develop the ability to interpret, analyze, and create visual content, not just textual information.
