Description
- Broadens the scope of media literacy understanding and practice by expanding current diverse media literacy approaches and placing them in a broader media ecological framework.
- Addresses current social issues and challenges such as populism and emerging right-wing nationalist movements in the U.S., UK., Europe, Turkey, Brazil, and elsewhere, as well as discourses and actions around the COVID-19 pandemic, Black Lives Matter movement, and climate change locally and worldwide.
- Presents the Dynamic Media Environment Model, an accessible framework for understanding a variety of media environments, and includes media literacy examples, global case studies, and exercises throughout to aid student comprehension and also highlight how media environments can be used as a means to enact social change.
