Abstract
Living in a world rich in digital images requires students and educators to have more visual literacy skills. The aim of this study is to examine the attitudes and visual literacy of secondary school students towards digital images on a relational basis. 188 secondary school students from two private schools in Türkiye participated in the study conducted with the comparative relational screening model. ‘Visual Literacy Scale’ and ‘Attitude Towards Digital Images Scale’ were used to collect the research data. Descriptive statistics, Independent T test and Pearson Correlation Coefficient Techniques were used in the analysis of the study data. According to the research findings, the attitudes and visual literacy of the participating secondary school students towards digital images were found to be high. The attitudes and visual literacy of secondary school students towards digital images differ according to the gender variable. Finally, significant and positive relationships were found between the attitudes of secondary school students towards digital images and their visual literacy.
