WELCOME to the home page of the Christian Media Literacy Institute. We are glad you stopped by for a visit. If you are a parent or teacher and you are looking for Christian materials to help your children understand the media, then this site and the Christian Media Literacy Institute are for you. There are many secular groups involved in media literacy. However, there is precious little media literacy material being developed from the Christian perspective. Our children could benefit greatly by learning how to use their faith to analyze the media. Through applying Law and Gospel to a constructed message our children can judge the moral quality of the message for themselves and compare that to the new life they have in Jesus Christ. In this way, children begin to learn how to use their faith to critique the world in which they live. Dr. John Tape, President, Christian Media Literacy Institute
Our Purpose
Our purpose is to proclaim the Gospel of Christ as we sensitize children, teachers and parents to the issues of media literacy.

SIMILE
SIMILE is a peer-reviewed journal that uses a double-blind refereeing process. Manuscripts are first reviewed by the editor. If deemed suitable following this initial review, they are then sent to two individuals on our 26-member editorial board or to other appropriate scholars as selected by the editor. The aim of SIMILE is to provide a venue for scholarly articles which will bridge the subject areas of bibliographic instruction, information literacy, and media literacy. Directed at a readership in the fields of information/media studies, library science, and education, SIMILE will examine ways in which reference- and teacher-librarians, teachers, and other concerned professionals can integrate media literacy concepts into instructional sessions about how to use print and electronic mass media sources. Reference librarianship has evolved in such a way that professionals in this area are assuming the responsibility of classroom-based teaching that stresses how to use information resources for a wide variety of user groups in public, academic, and school library settings.

Ask an expert: Why teach media literacy?
Fran Trampiets teaches graduate courses in media education October 18, 2000
Web posted at: 11:59 AM EDT (1559 GMT)
By Fran Trampiets Question: Why should we take time away from traditional subjects and teach about the media when children already spend so much time with media and often know more about it than adults? Answer: It’s not a case of replacing traditional subjects with media studies, but of teaching traditional subjects in new ways ways that reflect the realities of today’s information age. The traditional classroom, where the teacher and textbook were the primary sources of information, has evolved into learning centers where computers open up whole new worlds of learning opportunities. The critical factor is teaching students to use computers and use information wisely. Media education teaches students how to set learning objectives and how to access information that will help them reach those objectives. It teaches them how to analyze and evaluate the information they find and to determine what’s most relevant and helpful. Media education almost always results in more enthusiasm for learning because it gives students more control over their information searches and their ways of demonstrating what they’ve learned.

Emerging technologies, the global economy and the Internet are changing what it means to be literate. The digital age is transforming the quantity, range and speed of information and communication in our lives. The mass media affect how we perceive and understand the world and people around us, from what we wear, eat and buy to how we relate to ourselves and others. In the 21 st century, the ability to interpret and create media is a form of literacy as basic as reading and writing.

A Few Words about "Media Literacy"
Media literacy is the ability to understand how mass media work, how they produce meanings, how they are organized, and how to use them wisely. The media literate person can describe the role media play in his or her life. The media literate person understands the basic conventions of various media, and enjoys their use in a deliberately conscious way. The media literate person understands the impact of music and special effects in heightening the drama of a television program or film...this recognition does not lessen the enjoyment of the action, but prevents the viewer from being unduly credulous or becoming unnecessarily frightened. The media literate person is in control of his or her media experiences. The following definition of media literacy came out of the Trent Think Tank, a 1989 symposium for media educators from around the world sponsored by the Canadian Association for Media Literacy: "The goal of the media literacy curriculum must be to develop a literate person who is able to read, analyze, evaluate, and produce communications in a variety of media ( print, TV, computers, the arts, etc.)." Most often, "the media" are lumped together as a single entity. But "the media" are actually many forms of communication...including newspapers, magazines, and billboards, radio, television, videocassettes, video games, and computer games. Since the students participating in VidKids are primarily engaged in television viewing (most of them are too young to read newspapers and magazines), our activities focus on video and TV.

Someone saying negative things about the Harry Potter series practically elicits the same reaction as cursing motherhood, apple pie, and baseballhow dare anyone question something, anything, that motivates children to read? Reading is a wholesome activity. Reading is good. Reading is fundamental. Reading is the foundation for a literate, democratic society. Reading is the cornerstone of learning. Reading is A Tale of Two Harrys To truly comprehend the complexity in media literacy, we have to take an interdisciplinary approach that embraces the fields of cognition, education, media theory, and literacy studies. This is because the act of reading makes certain demands upon the individual, especially in the Mass Media Age. As media theorist Joshua Meyrowitz writes in

Understanding Media Literacy in Educational Contexts What Does it Mean to be Media Literate? Harry Potter ensemble or who can recall a book passage from memory may be strong readers or recallers of general information, and may be considered highly literate in the conventional sense. Yet their media literacy functions at a very low level, perhaps bordering on media aliteracy in that the surface knowledge is apparent but deeper levels of knowledge are missing. Educators must note that well-developed cognitive domains alone do not best serve a truly media literate person. In all probability, the Harry Potter found in movies and commercials will correspond to recognized or desired personal characteristics familiar to children and teens, which in turn will establish an opening for advertisers and others to shape youngsters' attitudes about new film stars and products. This process, known as

What is Media Literacy?
Media literacy - a learned skill like reading or writing - means being able to "read" the messages communicated by TV movies and the Internet. We all need media literacy skills to help us judge the value and the truth of the messages we receive. Kids especially need these skills as they spend enormous amounts of time consuming media messages. Without guidance, kids may not realize why the message was created or how the message-maker intends to influence them. Is Media Literacy Taught in School?
Yes, many teachers do teach media literacy skills. Several states, including Texas, New Mexico and North Carolina, require media education for high school graduation. Many states' information literacy standards include media literacy: the ability to both comprehend and analyze media messages. The American Library Association has developed and posted Information Literacy Standards you can review. Sometimes media literacy skills are the goal of instruction. For example, a teacher who wants to highlight how marketing strategies target children might have students visit three or four web sites that invite kids to enter contests, then compare how these sites encourage kids to reveal the personal information marketers want.

Douglas Rushkoff thinks schools aren't teaching the right subjects. Rushkoff, who has written six books on media and technology, said schools ought to teach children how to deconstruct the messages coming at them through television, the Internet, and other media. In Playing the Future , first released in 1995, Rushkoff laid out the idea that adults are immigrants in amedia-rich world where children are the natives. While adults think today's children are deficient in basic skills, Rushkoff said they are rich in skills that let them navigate the information-saturated environment in which we now live. Rushkoff furthers his ideas about media manipulation in his seventh book
