Children growing up in the 21st century need to understand the full
range of media available to them, both as sources of information
and entertainment, and as a means of communicating and sharing
ideas. Embedded in the primary curriculum, media education enables
children to become more fully literate for the digital age.
Grounded in best classroom practice, this book aims to help you
think about the role of media in children's lives, and to teach
about media effectively in your classroom. Three dimensions of
media education for the 3-11 age range are highlighted : children's
own cultural experiences, the development of critical awareness,
and opportunities for creative expression. The chapters are written
by literacy advisors, leading academics, teacher-trainers and
classroom practitioners. Topics covered include: - understanding
children's relationships with media and how to build on these
constructively - getting to grips with "multimodality" - developing
children's critical skills through watching and analysing moving
image media - broadening children's experiences of different kinds
of media and their media literacy - creative media activities that
promote imaginative thinking and decision-making - the importance
of social networking and social media and how to use these in the
classroom In an increasingly digital world, media education is an
essential part of good teaching, not just as a tool to teach the
more traditional aspects of the curriculum, but in its own right as
an essential part of literacy. This book is relevant to all
teachers working in Primary schools, and will be particularly
helpful for Literacy Co-ordinators.
