Media Literacy

Digging deeper into media literacy will definitely help students in learning to recognize bias, track down sources, and cross-check information, as stated in Educational Leadership. Teaching media literacy will help critical thinking in more subjects than just one. Not only can students read and point out stereotypes, advertising, and propaganda, but they can also participate in social networking and put their own input into what they are reading. Media literacy can really help incorporate technology into today's teaching, and it could really help the way students think and create.
