Extractions: Melinda Johnson LIS 386L.3 Dr. Loriene Roy Media Literacy: Introduction Exposure to large amounts of data through newspapers, magazines, television, film and the Internet is a daily occurrence. In order to make sense of all these media messages, people need to become media literate (ML). The Canadian Ministry of Education defines media literacy as the ability to critically understand, question and evaluate how media work and produce meaning, how they are organized, how they mediate and construct reality, and how they impact our lives. ML may include the ability to create media products. This pathfinder directs pre-service teachers at the Northwest Indian College (NWIC) in Lummi, Washington to media literacy resources. All the selected resources are freely available on the Internet. I selected resources that provide a broad coverage of both media literacy information such as media violence and censorship as well as teaching tools such as lesson plans and learning activities. In order to guarantee current information, the pathfinder contains only sites updated since January 2000. An online version of this pathfinder is available from http://www.gslis.utexas.edu/~vlibrary/pathfinders/Johnson. This pathfinder cites resources that provide background information on media literacy such as history, definitions, issues, organizations, and projects as well as tools for education professionals teaching media literacy. The resources in this pathfinder will answer questions such as: Where can I find general information about media literacy? What are some media literacy organizations? What are some examples of media literacy projects? Where can I find media literacy resources for the classroom?

Extractions: Curriculum Activities Media Literacy Activities General Activities Production Activities Technical Learning Activities Media Literacy Activity Summaries The Media Literacy Activities ask students to critically examine and analyze the multimedia projects of others, especially those they find in the real world around them. Frequently the media literacy activities complement production activities where students work on their own multimedia projects, as in the pair Audience Influence (media literacy) and Defining Your Audience (media production). The Media Literacy Activities are intended to help students develop their own high-quality multimedia projects and use them responsibly. Audience Influence By defining and then inventing an audience for a media product, students learn about the ways media products are shaped by their audience. Looking at Interviews By examining the conscious construction of an interview in this activity, students are better able to use interviews for the purposes of their project and critically evaluate the interviews they see in other forums. Multimedia Representations By looking critically at the ways organizations represent themselves in various multimedia products, students will better understand the ways media are used to shape audience impressions.

Extractions: Media Literacy in a Post 9/11 World In today's information age, the media that has become the dominant force in shaping our view of reality and our understanding of the way the world works. As educators in this era, we have a professional responsibility to teach our students how best to access and evaluate the vast spectrum of information, in the variety of forms and structures, which they have available to them. The aim of this lesson is to have students study the atrocities of September 11, 2001, and its aftermath while building media literacy skills. It offers educators a student-centered teaching model to explore the multiplicity of issues surrounding these tragic events and the way the world has changed as a result. Students will explore multiple sources of media and varying points of view- ranging from the local to the global and the global to the local. This lesson is designed to be self-directed for the teacher and/or student. Both the topic related to September 11 and its aftermath and the sources of media to study the topic are open to the discretion of the educator and can be tailored to meet larger curricular objectives and student interests. The media should be selected both to demonstrate the diversity of information sources and varying points of view that exist on the topic of study.
