Fran Trampiets teaches graduate courses in media education October 18, 2000 Web posted at: 11:59 AM EDT (1559 GMT) By Fran Trampiets Question: Why should we take time away from traditional subjects and teach about the media when children already spend so much time with media and often know more about it than adults? Answer: It’s not a case of replacing traditional subjects with media studies, but of teaching traditional subjects in new ways ways that reflect the realities of today’s information age. The traditional classroom, where the teacher and textbook were the primary sources of information, has evolved into learning centers where computers open up whole new worlds of learning opportunities. The critical factor is teaching students to use computers and use information wisely. Media education teaches students how to set learning objectives and how to access information that will help them reach those objectives. It teaches them how to analyze and evaluate the information they find and to determine what’s most relevant and helpful. Media education almost always results in more enthusiasm for learning because it gives students more control over their information searches and their ways of demonstrating what they’ve learned.

Wire Side Chats Archive Wire Side Chats WIRE SIDE CHATS Understanding the Hype: Media Literacy (An Education World e-Interview With Catherine Gourley) Every day, we are bombarded with messages when we watch television, go online, or read newspapers and magazines. What do those messages mean? What is their purpose? How should we process media messages? In a recent e-interview with Education World, noted author, educator, and media literacy expert Catherine Gourley shared her thoughts about media literacy and its role in education. Gourley's latest book, Media Wizards: A Behind-the-Scenes Look at Media Manipulations, introduces techniques to help students crack the codes of media messages. "Media wizards are a creative bunch. They produce their messages using a warehouse of tools visual effects, sound effects, words that have positive or negative connotations, headlines that SCREAM!, and photographs that sensationalize. Some wizards speak in sound bites and advertising slogans. Others mouth media metaphors. But their words and their illusions aren't magic. They are simply messages, each constructed with a purpose to inform, to persuade, or to influence behavior."

Media Literacy Media literacy empowers people to be both critical thinkers and creative producers of an increasingly wide range of messages using image, language, and sound. It is the skillful application of literacy skills to media and technology messages. As communication technologies transform society, they impact our understanding of ourselves, our communities, and our diverse cultures, making media literacy an essential life skill for the 21st century.

YOUR CHILD HOME Your Child Topics UMHS HOME Resources on Media and Media Literacy What is media literacy and why is it important for kids? According to a Kaiser Foundation study , kids spend the equivalent of a full-time workweek using media each week . As parents, we need to make sure our kids know how to “read” the media, so that they learn what we want them to learn from it, and don't learn things we would consider to be the wrong messages. Knowing how to “read” messages in the media (including TV, movies, magazines, advertisements, computer and video games, popular music, and the Internet) is called media literacy. Kids need to learn to: Recognize how media messages influence and manipulate us. Think critically about media messages—to uncover hidden messages and values. Interpret media messages in ways that do not damage their self-esteem. Here are some resources for parents and teachers: Why does media literacy matter?

Words Writing Speaking/Presenting Art ... Technology Media Literacy In the modern world, much of who we are and what we think depends on the various media messages we receive. These carefully crafted messages have a documented impact on our perceptions and behaviors. As we learn more about the techniques of media manipulation, we can be certain to make responsible decisions as consumers and citizens. Learning more about the media and how it affects us requires that we become more media literate. Media literacy is concerned with helping individuals develop an informed and critical understanding of the nature of mass media, the techniques used by media outlets, and the impact of these techniques. Developing media literacy can be likened to the scene in The Wizard of Oz when Toto pulls back the curtain to reveal the small, lever-pulling man behind the image of the mystical wizard. This is the point where Dorothy and her crew come to realize that the wizard is a carefully constructed fiction rather than some omnipotent force. Like Toto, we too need to learn how to "pull back the curtains" to reveal the truth behind the countless media messages that we are exposed to on a daily, even hourly basis. By going beyond the surface of such messages, we begin to understand the implicit as well as explicit ideas that are conveyed. Such scrutiny enables us to become active processors rather than passive receptors of the glut of messages in our daily media diet. This critical awareness will better prepare us to deal with the complex issues facing modern society.

Media Literacy in a Post 9/11 World Introduction 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. About the Lesson 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.
