Understanding Media Literacy

Since teens interpret the world and media messages in a unique way, it's important to teach them about media
literacy using media that appeals to their sensibilities. By demonstrating how to analyze the media that directly
affects teens, media educators can help fuel their highly inquisitive and productive minds.

This video is meant to teach high school students how to learn about media literacy using a pragmatic approach.
This is accomplished by using examples from media that teens consume most. Students will learn how to access,
analyze, and evaluate media such as television and radio commercials, print advertisements, photographs, songs,
online ads, websites, and product placements across all types of media. Perfect for in-class use.

2007, 33 minutes, NTSC DVD
