Presentation

Media literacy involves the relationship of two fields of study: education and communication. It has received different names in recent decades such as pedagogy of communication, educommunication, education for television, digital education, and more recently, media and information literacy (MIL). 

In this course we will introduce the students to this field of study through theoretical sessions, workshops and presentations. The aim of the course is to develop basic notions about media literacy, to understand its evolution and to develop the ability to design and produce materials to be applied in different contexts. It is important to highlight that, in recent years, the deep transformations in media ecology have propelled a total rethinking of traditional models of media literacy.

Throughout this subject, students will question and reassess the most traditional formulas in order to understand the concept of media literacy within the new media ecosystems. Grasping the multifaceted dimension of media literacy is essential to identify the mental mechanisms by which mass media and social media operate in order to exert influence on both audiences and users.

Teaching Methods

Throughout the course, different expositive and active learning methods are combined: master classes, individual and group readings, class debates, student presentations, workshops, video screenings, and especially, learning through research/action projects. 

Every week, students will be required to read the texts corresponding to each session so that there will always be a common topic for discussion and participation in the different learning activities.

Evaluation

The assessment of the course is composed of three elements, as detailed in the following table:

NOTE: The final mark will be the sum of the three items. Students must achieve a  minimum 5/10 mark in all items in order to pass the course.

Course attendance: Students must attend at least 80% of the sessions. More than 2 missed sessions must be properly justified. Whenever a student is absent for unknown reasons for more than two sessions, the instructors will penalise their final grade with -1 for each unexcused absence.
