New Literacies, New Practices : Media Literacy and Web 2.0 Applications Dr Julia Davies University of Sheffield

New literacies, new practices  This presentation is based on the premise that literacy is changing in a new media world (Kress, 2003; Lankshear and Knobel, 2006).

Cult of the Amateur  “Useless and corrupt user generated content”  “Self promotion - narcissism”  “Bloggery …. an enormous threat” (Andrew Keen: BBC Radio )

“Kids are going on the internet and are believing everything they read we are creating an increasingly media illiterate culture … in order to understand the internet you need to be literate before you get to the screen….” (Andrew Keen: BBC Radio )

What is Web 2.0?

( Angermeier, 2005)

(Knobel and Lankshear, 2007)

Useful tools for developing media literacy  Blogs  Wikis  Podcasts  RSS Feeds (Really Simple Syndication)

How can Web 2.0 develop media literacy?  Products and services enable manipulation of and reflection on data.  Collaboration and participation are key factors – can encourage group critical reflection.  Fosters agency and creativity of individuals e.g. citizen journalists.  Easy and free access to web-based software.

Citizen journalism …is the act of citizens ‘playing an active role in the process of collecting, reporting, analyzing and disseminating information’ (Bowman and Willis, 2005) ‘Peoplerazzi’

Making the News

Conclusion  Web 2.0 products and services have great potential for work on the media.  Pupils can create blogs, wikis and webpages for relaying news as well as exploring the way in which news is created and reported across Web 2.0 platforms.  Web 2.0 is changing the nature of journalism and the newspaper industry – contemporary pupils can be at the forefront of tracing these changes and their implications.  New literacy practices are needed for new times – educators need to take risks and explore potential.
