Rezensionen

In Dynamic Media Environments, Katherine G. Fry makes a compelling case for media literacy pedagogies and practices that embrace mediated environments and media ecologies. This text breaks important ground in evoking power, place and paradigms to bring critical media literacy practices into focus in formal and informal learning spaces. Fry's model reflects the media realities that guide daily life in local and global contexts and offers a series of media environment approaches to media education practice. This text is foundational for media studies, communication and media literacy educators around the world. - Paul Mihailidis, Professor, Civic Media & Journalism, Emerson College, Boston, USA

In Dynamic Media Environments, Katherine G. Fry, one of our leading media literacy scholars and practitioners, provides an important new approach to media education. By contextualizing media literacy through a synthesis with media ecology, the study of media as environments, she delivers a much-needed and long-awaited breakthrough, one that is nothing short of revolutionary. This book is essential reading for anyone concerned with understanding media, and especially anyone concerned with teaching about media in the 21st century. - Lance Strate, Professor of Communication and Media Studies, Fordham University, USA
