Teaching media literacy means helping students. |
From participating in this first module, you should be able to do the following: |
Identify the types of media/visual literacies employed in print and non-print media texts described in this module that you want students to learn in your classroom.
Identify the value of acquiring these literacies in terms of students’ development as critical viewers.
For each of these literacies, define how you would teach these literacies to students.
Identify each of four different approaches to teaching media studies described in this module: interventionist/control, critical thinking, critical pedagogy, art/aesthetic.
Define your own beliefs about the value and benefits of these different approaches.
Formulate a specific rationale for why media studies should be taught in the schools in a
manner that is convincing to both administrators and parents.
