• Half the Population, a Fifth of the News By Sanjay Suri Inter Press Service
• Wednesday 15 February 2006 • London - More and more women are now reporting the news,
but still only about a fifth of the subjects are women, a new survey shows.
• "What we see in news subjects is that whilst women make up 52 percent of the world's population, they make up only 21 percent of news subjects," Anna Turley from the World Association for Christian Communication (WACC) told IPS. WACC is a non-governmental organisation that promotes communication for social change.

As we enter the twenty first century, it is essential that the schools be places that help students better understand the complex, symbol-rich culture in which they live in.
A new vision of literacy is essential if educators are serious about the broad goals of education: preparing students to function as informed and effective citizens in a democratic society; preparing students to realize personal fulfillment; and preparing students to function effectively in a rapidly changing world that demands new, multiple literacies.
Renee Hobbs, 1997
![Page 20: My Digital Story](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052621/5585bee0d8b42af75f8b4e90/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
It is no longer enough to simply read and write. Students must also become literate in the understanding of visual images. Our children must learn how to spot a stereotype, isolate a social cliché and distinguish facts from propaganda, analysis from banter, important news from coverage.
Ernest Boyer
![Page 21: My Digital Story](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052621/5585bee0d8b42af75f8b4e90/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Media Education is both essential to the exercising of our democratic rights and a necessary safeguard against the worst excesses of media manipulation for political purposes.
Len Masterman

The aim is to develop an awareness about print and the newer technologies of communications so that we can orchestrate them, …. And get the best out of each in the educational process.
Without understanding of media languages and grammars, we cannot hope to achieve a contemporary awareness of the world in which we live.
Marshall McLuhan

"I learned how to deconstruct commercials, how to use the camera equipment, and how to create a public service announcement. Most importantly, I experienced that every message can be interpreted differently. Depending on the era, personal experience, each sign makes different meaning to different people.Prior to taking this course, I simply watched a commercial at face value. I never really looked at the details or asked myself what target audience the advertising company was aiming for. Since class, I have been a commercial-analyzing junkie. I look at the color scheme, the logo, the endorser (if there is one), choice of music, and the intended target audience.”

“I am happy to have met you,
because you have given me
much more to think about than
just the content of this class.
… More than learning video
production, this course gave
me the chance to reflect on my
own viewing habits and I
learned something about
myself.”

A democratic civilization will save itself only if it makes the language of the image into a stimulus for critical reflection, not an invitation to hypnosis.
Umberto Eco (l979)

Teacher’s Role
• Education must begin with the solution of the teacher-student contradiction, by reconciling the poles of the contradiction so that both are simultaneously teachers and students.
Paulo Freire

Production is crucial because
• Students need variety ways to present their ideas.
• Different learning styles demands different ways to present a project besides essays. (Gardner, 1993)
• Teaches Media Literacy skills• Gives students different perspectives and
point of view to look at the world/ surroundings- Multiculturalism
![Page 51: My Digital Story](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052621/5585bee0d8b42af75f8b4e90/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
• Media Production is an essential component in education
• Teachers education needs to include media production techniques and pedagogy
• Media Literacy skills are important component for multicultural education

Why Study Media?
• Media Saturation• Media Influence• Manufacture and Management of Information• Media Democracy/ Critical Autonomy• Increasing Importance & Emphasis• Privatization of Information• Educating for the future
![Page 54: My Digital Story](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052621/5585bee0d8b42af75f8b4e90/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Media are symbolic systems; not simply reflection of reality which must be accepted, but with languages which need to be actively read, and interrogated.
Len Masterman

Main Questions
• Who produces it? Originator, creator, or author
• Who are the stories intended for? Target Audience
• What is missing?
• Whose point of view is being presented?

The discipline studying everything which can be used in order to lie, …. Semiotics is concerned with everything that can be taken as a sign. A sign is everything which can be taken as significantly substituting for something else.
Umberto Eco
![Page 57: My Digital Story](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052621/5585bee0d8b42af75f8b4e90/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
• Video (TV) is helping or hurting education?
• Can school video production efforts compete with commercial endeavors?
• Are teachers using video effectively?• Can students learn anything from
planning or producing their own videos? (Valmont 1995, p.1)
![Page 58: My Digital Story](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052621/5585bee0d8b42af75f8b4e90/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
In schools, Media (video) production is considered to be time consuming
• Reasons not to have production in the curriculum. Lack of:– equipment– technical knowledge to be able to use the
equipment– support department– interest– time allocated in the curriculum
