Abstract
-
The book focuses on critical media literacy as both a theory and a practice for contemporary education. It argues that traditional schooling is outdated in a world dominated by interconnected digital media, and suggests that educators need to rethink what and how students learn to include critical analysis of media systems and content. The authors trace the development of media and cultural studies, drawing on thinkers from the Frankfurt School to recent intersectional theories that examine how media represent race, gender, class, and power. They provide frameworks and classroom strategies for helping learners understand and critically assess the influence of media messages, fake news, bias, and dominant ideologies across platforms.
