Students as Critical Consumers and Producers of Media

Students as Critical Consumers and Producers of Media

“Every day through television, social media, music, YouTube, and other media, our young people are inundated with messages, both true and false. If they don’t have the skills to criticize and reject some of those messages, they can believe false messages. But when students know how to identify and criticize false messaging and how to identify and create true messaging, they can be less impacted by the negative aspects of media and society.” Veronica Garza
