Measure Acquisition of Media Literacy Skills & What Is Media Literacy

Media Literacy is not Just Important, it’s Absolutely Critical




Learning with Gold, Shiny, and INTERNSAGE

“Media Literacy is not just important, it’s absolutely critical. It’s going to make the difference between whether kids are a tool of the mass media and whether the mass media is a tool for kids to use”
-Linda Ellerbee
After reading the above statement, Golu and Shiny discussed it to understand it but could not get much out of the discussion so they decided to ask INTERNSAGE.
It was late evening when they reached the INTERNSAGE after finishing college. The pressure of getting internship was building on them as they were in their final year of college.
INTERNSAGE smiled when he saw them and asked them to take a seat. He was sure that something was bothering them and wanted to calm them down.
At the same time, he was glad that they have a good habit of asking questions. As the right questions lead to the right answers and most of the times open up the door to new avenues.
INTERNSAGE asked them to have a long breath first and asked what has bought them to him. They said they have read about Media Literacy but are not sure how it impacts them. Is this how they need to use social media like Facebook, Instagram etc.

INTERNSAGE said let’s learn about what is Media Literacy first.

Media Literacy is not teaching with media, it’s teaching about media.
For example, when you ask Google for some information about the restaurant, the answer you get is based on the database of restaurants Google has plus your earlier queries on Google and your online footprints.
