What is media literacy? The ability to access, analyze, evaluate and produce communication in a variety of forms.

Six Key Concepts of Media Literacy 1.All media messages are “constructed.” 2.Each medium has different characteristics, strengths, and a unique “language” of construction. 3.Media messages are produced for particular purposes, including profit, persuasion, educations, and artistic expression. 4.All media messages have embedded values and points of view. 5.Different people may interpret the same media message in different ways. 6.Media and media messages can influence beliefs, attitudes, values, behaviors and the democratic process.

Six Questions To Ask About Any Media Message 1.Who made – and who sponsored – this message, and for what purpose? 2.Who is the target audience and how is the message specifically tailored to that audience? 3.What are the different techniques used to inform, persuade, entertain, and attract attention? 4.What messages are communicated (and/or implied) about certain people, places, events, behaviors, lifestyles, etc.? 5.How current, accurate and credible is the information in this message? 6.What is left out of this message that might be important to know?
