| Abstract: | Media literacy expands the traditional concept of literacy to include the forms of communication that dominate the lives of our students. If our students are to be literate, we must teach them the skills and habits of literacy for print and non-print mediated messages. This National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS) position statement discusses media literacy, key questions to ask when analyzing media messages, and highlights recommended curriculum resources. |
