Media Literacy

“The convergence of media and technology in a global culture is changing the way we learn about the world and challenging the very foundations of education.

No longer is it enough to be able to read the printed word; children, youth, and adults, too, need the ability to both critically interpret the powerful images of a multimedia culture and express themselves in multiple media forms.

Media literacy education provides a framework and a pedagogy for the new literacy needed for living, working and citizenship in the 21st century.

Moreover it paves the way to mastering the skills required for lifelong learning in a constantly changing world.”
