Section Title:
Foundations of Media Literacy
Section Info:
MUST CHOOSE 2 or 4 credit hours, for questions concerning the 2 or 4 credit hours, please email Kristin Mattson at kmattson@illinois.edu. IS 581 Foundations of Media Literacy provides students with both theoretical and practical knowledge of media literacy necessary to develop personal media literacy skills and knowledge to be better equipped for teaching and leading others in the future. Media literacy builds on traditional definitions of literacy that emphasize reading and writing, that is the consumption and production of printed texts. Instead of focusing exclusively on printed texts, however, media literacy explores the consumption and production of diverse methods of communication such as images, games, and music. For much of its history, media literacy has emphasized people's consumption of mass media including newspapers, television, and film. In recent years, media literacy researchers and teachers have increasingly emphasized the production of media as well as newer forms of social and participatory media. Participants will increase personal media literacy skills and knowledge to be better equipped to teach and lead others in this area.
