Summary:"Teaching Media Literacy connects educators of all kinds to tools to help youth develop the critical thinking skills to navigate information in all its mediums in a way that makes sense with what's happening in the world"--
Our information landscape has changed exponentially in the last decade, and is not going to slow down. How can students judge the credibility of information online-- if we don't give them the skills they need to do so? De Abreu discusses classic components of media literacy, as well as newer media literacy issues such as hackers and 'fake news'. -- adapted from forewords and preface.
