Media Literacy. ERIC Digest. by Abdullah, Mardziah Hayati Children today are growing up in what O'Sullivan, Dutton and Rayner (1998) call a "media saturated" world, in which mass media, including the Internet, have a commanding presence in daily life. Media messages exert such powerful "social, emotional and intellectual influences" (Hepburn, 1999) that it is important to develop a society which understands how media can both serve and deceive. It is thus imperative for educators to teach what Megee (1997) calls "the new basic"- media literacy - so that learners can be producers of effective media messages as well as "critical consumers of ideas and information" (Rafferty, 1999). WHAT IS MEDIA LITERACY? Based on definitions provided by conferees at the Annenberg School for Communication (cited in Megee, 1997) and by the Canadian Ministry of Education, media literacy (ML) may be thought of 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. Fulton (1998) discusses technology-related competencies and curriculum standards defined by various states that may be applied to ML education. Among the six "essential learnings" Illinois desires for its students are the ability to seek and navigate information, to communicate effectively using appropriate technology, and to be responsible citizens in a technological age. Thus, in addition to teaching the technical aspects of handling various media equipment, ML is concerned with helping learners become informed users of media messages.

literacy practices that teach students how to successfully decode information Tyner s book will give media education and media literacy a powerful push

    Kathleen Tyner, Literacy in a Digital World: Teaching and Learning in the Age of Information (Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, 1998). In November 1998 the Library Journal published the first in a series of articles aimed at helping students choose a library science program. As a potential graduate student in library science, I was concerned by a number of comments from students who believed their programs were too focused on information technology, that is on the tools of information, at the expense of traditional library education. The author of the article John Berry, editor of the Library Journal Literacy in a Digital World: Teaching and Learning in the Age of Information. Furthermore changes in library education, particularly the education of school librarians, will have a direct impact on K-12 classrooms if library education shifts toward a commodity/pre-packaged view of information.
The solution, as Tyner sees it, is a third "use of literacy as a source of social power:" one that calls for an ability to not only "read the world," but an ability to "write the world." Literacy practices that teach students how to successfully "decode information in a variety of formats analogous to the reading of print" and also "manipulate and understand the processes to create messages and distribute them" are "literacy practices [that] accrue maximum benefit to the individual." (4) Tyner believes media education , and not simply the tools of technology, to be the means to achieve this task.

  • HOME WHAT WE DO WHO WE ARE ... Media Smart Media Smart Media Smart Are you media smart? How about your students? Being media smart is sometimes called media literacy , and it means you can access, understand, analyze, evaluate, and create media messages on television, the Internet and other outlets. Those skills can help us interpret the many messages we daily receive from these sources—by applying the same critical-thinking skills used in reading and writing to other forms of media. Americans get most of our news and other information from the electronic media. Yet until recently, children have not been taught how to thoughtfully examine media messages. Fortunately, media literacy is now part of the curricular frameworks in all 50 states. Explore the links below to get an overview of the key concepts of media literacy, along with ideas for using those concepts with your students. Media Literacy 101 A ten-part online primer for parents and teachers, Media Literacy 101 covers the key concepts of media literacy and provides examples and activities that illustrate and illuminate each point. Digital Ethics Media literacy and digital ethics go hand in hand. Where media literacy teaches students how to understand, analyze and create media, digital ethics is all about teaching ethical, courteous, safe, and productive behavior while using digital media.

Analyzing and assessing sources is an essential part of all inquiry-based learning projects , but our multimedia world means that we have to teach kids not just how to assess data and arguments, but also how to discern emotional appeals made through pictures, music and video. This important topic is too big to thoroughly cover here, but we can give you a few pointers and resources for further explanation:
  • When we teach how to do photography , we're also teaching kids to really look at the images they see. They come to understand the emotional effects inherent in a photographer's choices about angle, focus and other aesthetic elements.

Emerging technologies, the global economy and the Internet are changing what it means to be literate. The digital age is transforming the quantity, range and speed of information and communication in our lives. The mass media affect how we perceive and understand the world and people around us, from what we wear, eat and buy to how we relate to ourselves and others. In the 21 st century, the ability to interpret and create media is a form of literacy as basic as reading and writing.

TEACHING MEDIA LITERACY THROUGH THE TEEN-SCREEN
Since so much media literacy work is based upon concerns regarding the effects of media on impressionable children and adolescents, studying the relationship between media and youth offers us an important insight into this relationship and has the added advantage for those of us working with young people, in providing us with a subject matter that our students are curious about. By utilizing key principles of media literacy we can begin to construct a conceptual framework that facilitates our understanding of media and youth.
What are some of these principles and what questions do they raise about this relationship?
MEDIA ARE REPRESENTATIONS.
Media messages are actually depictions of people, places, issues, institutions and so on. Within the realms of our investigation the central question becomes, what is the nature of the way the media depict and construct young people? This can be divided into several important categories. 1. How are young people represented in distinct media such as motion pictures, television, advertising, journalism, popular music? What characteristics do these representations have in common and how do these depictions differ in different media formats? 2. How do the media perceive, address and target young people as the consumers of , and audiences for , their products? In short, we attempt to ascertain h ow the media TALK TO and ABOUT young people
1 way that the mainstream media frame or construct youth for example, can be summarized as

Live Long And Prosper: Media Literacy in the USA
Author: John Pungente SJ

CLIPBOARD
Vol.8 No.2 Summer 1994 It's March 16, 1994 and as the plane circles to land at the Los Angeles airport, I can see the extensive damage done by the recent earthquake. When we touch down, the pilot, after the usual announcements welcoming us to Los Angeles, says Live Long and Prosper! Whether he is referring to the earthquake or just trying to be humorous is unclear. No one pays any attention. Did the reference to Star Trek elude everyone or did they just not care? In April, 1994, President Bill Clinton signed into law The Goals 2000: Educate America Act. This bill details what USA school children ought to be taught and tested on in certain subjects. States will get federal money - $400 million - to develop performance and content standards, along with local governments and school districts. The bill encourages voluntary "content standards" in nine core subjects, English, mathematics, history, science, foreign language, civics, economics, arts and geography. The standards for Arts will include Media Literacy at all primary and secondary levels and so Goals 2000 becomes an important element in discussions on Media Literacy across the USA. California plans to introduce new legislation on media literacy in their war against television violence. Hawaii sees media literacy as something to help prevent racism. North Carolina, Florida, and New Mexico are other states which have educational legislation promoting media literacy.

    Teaching Media Literacy Through Media That Matters
    Posted on July 21, 2005 By Andrea Quijada of the New Mexico Media Literacy Project Hi, I have returned to New Mexico from Monterey, CA where the Alliance for Community Media held its annual international conference and trade show. It was my first time attending this conference and I was excited to present a workshop in the final session of the last day titled "Media For The People?" In this workshop we reviewed news clips, discussed how news is constructed, deconstructed more examples, and held a lively (but abbreviated) conversation on whether or not the "techniques of persuasion" used by new media are techniques that we as a movement should or should not utilize.
    Andrea Quijada from the New Mexico Media Literacy Project We ended the workshop with the film The News Is What We Make It from the Media That Matters Film Festival. Audience members responded well to the film's humor, cleverness, and topic. It was a great way to end the workshop since its story line brilliantly ties together issues of news construction and media ownership with the triumph of individual and community power. A big thank you to MediaRights for the getting us the film on time, and also a big thank you to everyone who attended the workshop. Do you want to screening a film from the festival as part of a workshop?

    We need media literacy classes in school By David Shaw
    Los Angeles Times
    (published Nov.29, 2003)
    We are, all of us, awash in media. Television. Movies. The Internet. Billboards. Newspapers. Magazines. Radio. Newsletters. Individually and collectively, we spend more time with more media than ever before - an average of 10.5 hours a day, about 25 percent of that time using two media simultaneously, according to a recent study of "Middletown, USA" by the University of South Carolina. Children in particular have become media-obsessed. Another recent study, this one by the Kaiser Family Foundation, found that 68 percent of kids 2 and younger spend an average of two hours a day in front of a screen, either television or computer. Children under 6 spend as much time in front of a screen as they do playing outside - and three times as much as they spend reading or being read to. Those numbers don't decline as the children grow older. Douglas Rushkoff, a professor of media culture at New York University, has coined the term "screen-agers" to convey the depth of this inundation. Moreover, yet another study - the 2003 Roper Youth Report - shows that kids ages 8 to 17 have 10 percent more say now than they did a year ago in their families' media purchases: magazines, newspapers, music, DVDs.

    Abstract
    As a curricular initiative, media literacy presumes to go beyond base theoretical and ethical journalism courses by providing student-outcome, reflexive engagement that enables students to become active participants in an increasingly media-saturated society. In reviewing the current state of media literacy in higher education and hesitancies to its conceptualized benefits to higher education, some light can be shed as to why journalism departments have yet to fully acknowledge how media literacy can enhance their curriculum.

Australia and Canada have programs in place on a wide scale basis to teach consumers how they are being influenced by media messages. This paper looks at applying the principles of creativity to teaching media literacy. Both a captive and voluntary audience are considered. The ramifications of applying what was taught in the classroom to the actual experience of media interaction is also addressed. A definition of media literacy is given which shows how its understanding has already changed in the past few years.

Though mass culture is only about 150 years old, the true nature of its effects on society in general are just beginning to be studied. Yet many sociologists are willing to elevate the media to co-equal status with the family, the church, and the school as the primary institutions that affect both cognitive learning and the teaching of social and moral values. (p. 4) Given the power of emerging literacies, teacher educators need to pay attention. Teacher education needs media literacy as an essential tool and an essential topic in the new millennium. Following is a discussion of what media literacy is, a rationale for incorporating it into teacher education, examples of media literacy across the teacher education curriculum, and a summary of the benefits of media literacy for educators and their students.
