Journal of Visual Literacy Editorial Session
Wednesday October 7, 2026 4:30pm - 5:15pm EDT
Lecture Hall
This interactive editorial session offers conference participants an opportunity to engage directly with the editorial vision, expectations, and publication processes of the Journal of Visual Literacy (JVL). Led by Editor-in-Chief Maria Avgerinou, the session will discuss current directions in visual literacy scholarship, emerging themes in the field, and the evolving role of visuals in an AI-mediated world.

Participants will gain practical insight into what makes a strong manuscript submission, common reasons manuscripts are rejected, and how authors can better position their work for successful peer review. The session will also address issues such as conceptual alignment with visual literacy scholarship, methodological rigor, theoretical framing, ethical use of AI in academic writing, and publishing expectations in interdisciplinary research.

The session will include:

* An overview of JVL’s current editorial priorities and scope
* Guidance for first-time and emerging authors
* Discussion of special issues and future publication opportunities
* Q&A with attendees regarding submissions, peer review, and scholarly publishing

Faculty, graduate students, researchers, artists, designers, and practitioners interested in publishing visual literacy research are warmly invited to attend.
