This way students stay informed on things that are going on in the world. This gives students a way to teach themselves and is a good from of induction.

What is Media Literacy?
Media literacy is the ability to sift through and analyze the messages that inform, entertain and sell to us every day. It's the ability to bring critical thinking skills to bear on all media— from music videos and Web environments to product placement in films and virtual displays on NHL hockey boards. It's about asking pertinent questions about what's there, and noticing what's not there. And it's the instinct to question what lies behind media productions— the motives, the money, the values and the ownership— and to be aware of how these factors influence content.
Media education encourages a probing approach to the world of media: Who is this message intended for? Who wants to reach this audience, and why? From whose perspective is this story told? Whose voices are heard, and whose are absent? What strategies does this message use to get my attention and make me feel included?
In our world of multi-tasking, commercialism, globalization and interactivity, media education isn't about having the right answers—it's about asking the right questions. The result is lifelong empowerment of the learner and citizen.What is Media Literacy? - Flash Version

The second stage is learning specific skills of critical viewing— learning to analyze and question what is in the frame, how it is constructed and what may have been left out. Skills of critical viewing are best learned through inquiry-based classes or interactive group activities, as well as from creating and producing one's own media messages.

To be literate today, people must be able to:
In other words literate individuals must possess media literacy as well as print literacy, numeral literacy and technological literacy.

My personal preference is to use the term "media education" as a broad description of all that takes place in a media-oriented classroom, whether the subject matter is English, history, geography or science. (There's plenty of media learning that can be done in all those subject areas and others.)

"Media literacy" is a quality, like a tan, which can be achieved.
-
Media literacy is an informed, critical understanding of the mass media. It involves examining the techniques, technologies and institutions involved in media production; being able to critically analyze media messages; and recognizing the role audiences play in making meaning from those messages.

The 3 Stages of Media Literacy
-
The first stage is simply becoming aware of the importance of managing one's media "diet"— that is, making choices and reducing the time spent with television, videos, electronic games, films and various print media forms.
The second stage is learning specific skills of critical viewing— learning to analyze and question what is in the frame, how it is constructed and what may have been left out. Skills of critical viewing are best learned through inquiry-based classes or interactive group activities, as well as from creating and producing one's own media messages.
The third stage goes behind the frame to explore deeper issues. Who produces the media we experience—and for what purpose? Who profits? Who loses? And who decides? This stage of social, political and economic analysis looks at how everyone in society makes meaning from our media experiences, and how the mass media drive our global consumer economy. This inquiry can sometimes set the stage for various media advocacy efforts to challenge or redress public policies or corporate practices. -
Media Study, Media Education or Media Literacy?
Media teachers today use the terms "media education," "media study," and "media literacy" almost interchangeably. My personal preference is to use the term "media education" as a broad description of all that takes place in a media-oriented classroom, whether the subject matter is English, history, geography or science. -
"Media study" occurs when schools or teachers organize specific courses or units to study the media.
-
"Media literacy" is the expected outcome from work in either media education or media study. The more you learn about or through the media, the more media literacy you have. Media literacy is the skill of experiencing, interpreting/analyzing and making media products.
