Investigation of High School Students' Visual Literacy Levels

Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the visual literacy levels of high school students and to reveal whether visual literacy levels are affected by some variables. In this context, the visual literacy levels of the participants were examined according to gender, class and achievement level on the basis of comparative relational screening method. The study group consisted of 299 high school students studying in Sivas, Konya and Mersin city centers. Personal Information Form and Visual Literacy Scale were used to collect the data of the study. As a result of the study, it was discovered that the visual literacy levels of high school students were moderate in some dimensions but generally high. In the study, a partially significant difference was found according to the gender variable. In the study, it was observed that the level of visual literacy increased in parallel with the grade level. Finally, as the success level of the students increases, their visual literacy increases significantly.
