Summary |
What are the benefits, opportunities and pitfalls of the digital explosion for education, and how does media literacy fit in? Two films examine the issues from two perspectives. Educationalists and agenda-setters analyse some of the current thinking about media literacy in a round table discussion. Robin Blake, Head of media literacy at Ofcom; Cary Bazalgette, Media Literacy Consultant; Sonia Livingstone, Professor of Social Psychology at LSE; Adrian Hall, Director of Mobile Learning, Steljes; and David Hassell, Director Learning, Teaching and Inclusion, Becta, make the case for media literacy as a vital knowledge-age skill. Ofcom define Media Literacy as the ability to access, understand and create communication in a variety of contexts but what does this really mean? Hand-held, mobile, wi-fi devises are flooding the market. How can teachers harness this access and digital aptitude for learning? What should a media literacy strategy look like and what are the benefits? |
