Approaches to teaching visual literacy in higher education must include a focus on context and not just content, process and not just product, impact and not just intent. Unframing is an approach to visual literacy pedagogy that acknowledges that visuals are a pervasive part of everyday life, as well as embedded into every scholarly discipline. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In four parts, \u003ci\u003eUnframing the Visual: Visual Literacy Pedagogy in Academic Libraries and Information Spaces \u003c\/i\u003eexplores: \u003cbr\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Participating in a Changing Visual Information Landscape \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Perceiving Visuals as Communicating Information \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Practicing Visual Discernment and Criticality \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Pursuing Social Justice through Visual Practice \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Twenty-four full color chapters present a range of theoretical and practical approaches to visual literacy pedagogy that illustrate, connect with, extend, and criticize concepts from the Framework for Visual Literacy in Higher Education: Companion Document to the Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education.
