Renee Hobbs, one of the nation's leading authorities on media literacy education and an active presenter, offers real-life examples of teachers who incorporate media literacy education through creative uses of mass media, popular culture, and online social media.

Hobbs provides examples and vignettes in the area of English language arts, literature, social studies, health education, and the fine and performing arts. Teachers will learn how to select meaningful media 'texts' for use in the classroom and how to recognize the 'teachable moment' in dialogue and discussion about mass media and popular culture.

Recenzii

“As our society becomes more global, schools must embrace a curriculum that builds and supports students’ critical thinking and 21st century skills. This book provides a purposeful technology- and media-driven path for teachers and curriculum specialists to follow in preparing students to become global citizens.”

"This book provides a wide variety of ways teachers can use technology to their advantage in the classroom. We need books like this one to show us how to utilize the power of the Internet and create valuable learning opportunities to 21st century students."
"Every teacher desires to integrate technology into their classroom instruction. This book provides step-by-step lessons and explanations. This is a must-read for anyone still tentative about immersing their instruction with the digital age."
"This book gives teachers ideas for actively engaging students in meaningful conversations. It helps us to find new ways to challenge students to think on a higher level."
"Renee Hobbs is a teacher at heart. Drawing from her vast knowledge of media literacy education and her experiences in secondary classrooms, Hobbs delivers on a number of fronts: critical thinking, Common Core standards, lesson planning, and communicating. To read Renee Hobbs is to take action!"
"By providing numerous examples, tools, and strategies, Media Literacy Education invites us to understand, critique, and create media. Renee Hobbs builds on theories of adolescent learning as well as current research in media studies to provide a clear framework for integrating media literacy across the curriculum. We have been told that we are supposed to engage our 21st-Century students. Hobbs continues to show us how."

"Renee Hobbs makes a powerful case for media education as a touchstone for all areas of the curriculum. Even better, Media Literacy Education provides the tools for fostering media-literate learners—a must in the 21st century."
"In her new book Media Literacy Education, Renee Hobbs demonstrates that using digital media in the classroom can support the development of print literacy skills, as well as entertain and engage. This book links traditional skills such as authentic inquiry and the use of critical questions to students’ pop culture, bringing relevance to the learning experience. In doing so, it empowers both teachers and students to make literacy experiences more relevant to students’ interests, everyday life, and important current and cultural experiences."
