      safety has become a major issue with social networks all over the web.
  • The campaign reports that 61 percent of 13 to 17 year-olds publish a profile on social networking sites, and one in seven young people receive sexual solicitations over the Internet (70% of which are girls). But kids aren't only the victims. They can be perpetrators, as when it comes to so-called textual harassment" or cyber-bullying.
  • My curiosity about the prospects for media literacy education in the testing-heavy era of the "No Child Left Behind" Act led me to attended a panel at the NAMLE conference entitled, "Does It Work? Assessing the Effectiveness of Media Literacy in K-12 Education." The panel featured some of the brightest minds in media literacy, including Renee Hobbs, Cyndy Scheibe, Peter Worth and David Kleeman. Yet there was hardly a consensus on how to create a measurement protocol that can determine whether a certain media literacy curriculum is successful.

      begin using different approaches to teaching styles, i feel that would be a great improvement to this system.the more technology involved while expensive it may be, will interest and excite kids to learn in a "new" more up to date method.

  • in order to prepare students for the modern workforce, education must go beyond core curricula and teach "critical thinking and problem solving skills, communication skills, creativity and innovation skills, collaboration skills, contextual learning skills, and information and media literacy skills."

EBSCOhost: Critical Appraisal of Information on the Web in Practice: Undergraduate Stu... - 0 views

  • Results indicated that students failed to use critical appraisal criteria, and that while knowledge of and self-reported use of these criteria were related to each other, they were not related to behaviour. This research demonstrates the need for alternative strategies for critical appraisal instruction and assessment. (Contains 3 figures.)

      This article is credible. It is a research paper measuring how students actually use their information literacy skills. It contains many scholarly references and conclusions seem to be well supported. The authors are identified and the article is from a professional journal.

    This article describes a practical analysis of how students actually use information literacy. It argues that students may know what they are supposed to do to evaluate information but they do not often do it. An argument is made that students can be taught information literacy in universities.

  • Moral literacy is defined as the ability to contend with complex moral problems. It involves the ability to recognize a problem as a moral one. The morally literate individual must acknowledge the multiple perspectives of individuals involved in the problems. The ability to assess both disagreements on and proposed responses to the problems is another skill of the morally literate individual. The development of these abilities involves learning and practicing a set of skills. These skills must be taught and then practiced until they become habits. The skills include sensitivity, listening, reflecting, critical thinking and moral reasoning. A moral literacy resource for educators, therefore, should provide information to assist in developing both an understanding and application of these skills and abilities.

      A hard definition to find, but definitely a thorough one.
