Abstract
-
The article argues for the urgent inclusion of critical media literacy in K–12 and teacher education curricula in response to the realities of the information era. It defines critical media literacy as understanding how corporate, profit-driven media operate through political and economic interests, supporting alternative nonprofit media, and empowering teachers to guide students and parents in media analysis.
