Media and Information Literacy - Summary
Being media savvy but not media literate can be disastrous. Media and information literacy encompasses the practices that allow people to access, critically evaluate, and create or manipulate media. Media literacy education is intended to promote awareness of new media influence and create an active stance towards both consuming and creating media.
I am imparting media and information literacy into the English Language classroom to bridge the language barriers. Incorporating media literacy in the teaching of listening, speaking, reading, writing and language arts skills is aligned with the current CEFR curriculum.
