2. Media literacy is inquiry:
“Asking critical questions
about what you watch, use,
play, listen to and read.”
Some Critical Questions for Analyzing Media
 Who is the author and what is the
purpose of this message?
 What techniques are used to attract
and hold attention?
 What lifestyles, values and points of
view are represented?
 How might different people interpret
this message differently?
 What is omitted?

“creating to learn” in your classroom?
‱ How are you supporting the development of students’
confidence in making interpretations and their authority
as digital authors?
‱ What current activities could be modified so that
students experience the power of media literacy?
‱ What potential impact might these learning experiences
have for learners?

experience?
@reneehobbs
@reneehobbs
How are your students “creating to
learn” in your classroom?
How are you supporting the
development of students’
authority as digital authors?
What current activities
could be modified so
that students experience
the power of digital
authorship?
What potential impact might these
experiences have for learners?
People with
digital and media literacy competencies
are empowered lifelong learners
We gain these competencies through relationships
and in learning communities through
dialogue, discussion & creative media-making
