Produktbeschreibung
News Literacy gathers leading scholars, educators, and media makers to explore new approaches to thinking about, examining, and evaluating news media and civic engagement around these fundamental questions: What are the most pressing issues in news, media, and culture in a converged, digital, and global media age? What are the best educational practices to foster media literate understanding, engagement, and expression across borders, across cultures, and across divides? The book will prepare future media practitioners (and citizens) to embrace new media environments that can simultaneously empower their craft and their civic voice. This means teaching not only about the various ways new technologies are used and to what end, but also how these tools can enable better engagement with audiences, more dialog with communities, and a more nuanced understanding of how information is processed through new media platforms. Such an approach can empower a more active, collaborative, and empowered information landscape for the digital age.

Rezensionen
«A technological revolution is transforming today's media at breathtaking speed. Social media, citizen journalism, 24-hour rolling news - we are being flooded with information in every conceivable format. On the face of it, the consumer of news should be better informed than ever before. But in practical terms, it is becoming increasingly difficult to tell fact from fiction or credible reporting from spin. This new volume makes an important contribution to our ability to navigate a path through this rapidly changing landscape.» (Stephen Jukes, Dean of the Media School, Bournemouth University; former Global Head of News at Reuters)
«The future of journalism - and of an informed citizenry - rests on building a bridge between the traditional and new forms of reporting. 'News Literacy' explores this terrain with a sophisticated understanding of both worlds and with a deep appreciation for what's at stake. It is indispensable reading for those of us who believe that strong, responsible journalism is the key to strong, responsible democracy.» (Dana Priest, Two-Time Pulitzer Prize-Winning Reporter, Washington Post)
«'News Literacy' aims to reinvent journalism education by offering global perspectives on contemporary citizenship with innovative teaching and learning strategies. The Salzburg Academy on Media and Global Change is the most exciting cross-national initiative in the field today. For educators who want to ensure that their students have the competencies to thrive in an information age, this book offers practical projects and activities that will engage learners, deepen their skills, and help them to become citizens of the world.» (Renee Hobbs, Professor, Department of Broadcasting, Telecommunications and Mass Media, Temple University School of Communications and Theater; Founder, Media Education Lab)
«This book is well timed and much needed. Paul Mihailidis has harnessed the exciting momentum of the scholars and teachers around the globe who are documenting and sharing the ways that digital technology has de-emphasized institutional journalism and restored the voices of the voiceless. This will be an important text for media scholars and practitioners as they make sense of the ways dissent has re-made the world with the only weapon that ever mattered and the only bulwark against tyranny: information widely shared. Students of statecraft would do well to study this well, for the course of new nations is being drafted by the technologies and new actors described in this book.» (Dean Miller, Director, The Center for News Literacy, Stony Brook University)
