This document discusses visual literacy and provides resources for incorporating it into English language teaching. It defines visual literacy as using pictures, photos, and images to convey meaning. Some techniques presented include having students do a picture walk to analyze photos without words, creating photo essays to tell stories through images, and using online tools to add captions, speech bubbles, or annotations to images to facilitate discussion. A variety of free online platforms are listed that allow creating presentations, slideshows, collages, or banners using photos.
