Media education seeks to empower students by teaching them to create, consume, and critique media in an informed and responsible manner. Through media education, students learn how to critically analyze and evaluate media messages, develop media skills, and become active creators of media. Media education also encourages students to explore the potential of media to shape our culture, our sense of identity, and our engagement with the world. Ultimately, media education provides students with the tools and knowledge to become informed citizens in the digital age.
Media education also encompasses topics such as media history and theory, media psychology, media law and ethics, media representation, media production and distribution, and media marketing. Through media education students learn how to effectively communicate in a variety of media formats and how to promote themselves and their ideas in the media.
