In this assignment, you will be creating a short plan to teach media literacy to a group of learners of your choice using a website and an example from popular culture
Use mediasmarts.ca as a resource and then :
Choose just ONE small part of the resource (ex. one bullet point, one strategy, one technique, a specific video, etc.) that you find to be high quality — one that you could use to teach media literacy to others who haven’t encountered the concept before.
Type out OR record a script that includes the following:
A description or explanation of the media literacy website section in your own words. Refer back to the resource by either quoting it in small parts or paraphrasing. Remember: imagine you are teaching this as a new concept to a group of learners!
An explanation of why the element you chose would help your learners become more media literate.
An example from popular culture to help teach or illustrate the media literacy element. The popular culture example (also known as a popular culture artifact) you choose can be a TV show, online video of any sort, social media content, podcast, or another example you think fits! You don’t have to cite the popular culture example if it is well known (e.g. a Disney movie), but if it is something more obscure (e.g. a YouTube video), please include it in your References section.
Place an order in 3 easy steps. Takes less than 5 mins.
