Michelle KrillSchools are working with a flexible definition of literacy, influenced by established core concepts of media literacy, to:
* promote the development of critical thinking skills necessary to independently 'read' & 'write', and make meaning of messages in a variety of forms
* promote the basic operational skills, and understanding of the languages necessary to independently 'read' and 'write' effective messages in various forms of media (print, video, audio, etc.)
* instill confidence in the ability to adapt those skills and concepts to emerging forms of communication
* connect and transfer the fundamentals of literacy to other forms of real world communication and problem solving
Challenges & Questions:
* How do you fit this into already full school schedules?
* If these type of productions do take time from other discipline and skills, is it worth it?
* When and how do we train teachers to be confident enough in their own media literacy to fluidly guide students?
* Where is the balance that satisfies outcomes schools are traditionally responsible for with the real world needs of our students? -
