Module 2

What is Media Literacy? from Simone Wagner on Vimeo.


  • Fake news has recently drawn a lot of attention in the media. 
  • It naturally links to the key concept of representation, which has always been at the very core of media literacy teaching. 
  • Because indeed, just like traditional newspapers, radio or television, digital media do not offer a transparent window on the world, but rather a mediated version. 
  • They don’t just present reality, they re-present it. 
  • Even when it is concerned with real-life events, they invite us to see the world in some particular ways and not others. 
  • In that sense, they are bound to be “biased” rather than “objective.” 
   
Watch this out!

Media educator Frank Baker compiled a (long but very useful) list of practical recommendations (including lesson plans, handouts and related videos).

My post

"I would use this video and then discuss on fake news. Then I'd ask my students to write a true story of themselves and a fake one. Afterwards, the children would try to figure out which stories are true and which are fake."

Activity 2.5

How can media literacy contribute to a participatory culture?


My post

"Media literacy do contribute to a participatory culture. An example: on the internet people write stories, which are read by millions of people, especially teenagers. Some of these books are even printed and sold in the commerce.
The same is for music and the arts."
