| dc.description.abstract | Media literacy can be considered an important element to some higher courses, at universities and polytechnic institutes, but not as a part of consumer’s education, but a part of some citizenship curricula, like social communication or journalism, for instance. But it’s recognized by several experts in the educational field that giving basic tools to understand the media it’s a major part of the student’s ability to understand the surroundings, in particular to understand the links between the reality and the pseudo reality mediated by the media. Little children, for instance, as TV consumers have already the ability to understand which information has any correspondence to real life and which doesn’t. Cartoons are easily characterized as imaginative stories, unreal, but it becomes harder to establish distinctions between journalism features or newspaper articles and what effectively happens at the places in the ‘portrait’. There are several simple exercises that can be conducted in different classes aiming children, pre-teenagers, teenagers and young students that don’t require a lot of equipment or materials and can be an interesting way of introducing/developing media literacy. Starting with the recognition of the several media and their basic characteristics, proceeding with the agenda limitations, the identification of some technical illusions, and ending by visiting media organizations or even producing their own newspapers or radio shows. Now that the interactive TV is starting to have some relevance, it’s urgent to implement some basic tools, from mental maps to short newspaper stories, for the media consumer to become more aware of the frame, which is used to present news. | pt_PT |
