Abstract
-
Semiotic analysis of media texts is an analysis of the language of signs and symbols in media texts. This analysis is closely linked to the iconographic analysis. Semiotic analysis of media texts for training purposes based on the semiotic theory of media (Semiotic Approach, Le decodage des medias), grounded in the work of such theorists as R. Barthes, C. Metz, U. Eco and others.
Identification analysis is the recognition / identification of hidden messages in media texts,
because media agencies often offer simplistic solutions for complex problems. The media educators
can use in this area educational games with practical content, aimed at audience understanding
how certain ideas, problems can be encoded, camouflaged in the media text. This article presented the main directions for Semiotic and Identification analysis on media
education classes for student audience, including the examples of creative problems and issues
associated with this type of the analysis in the context of media education problems, i.e. based on
six key concepts of media literacy education: agency, category, language, technology, audience,
representation. The author supposes that this analysis of media texts on media education classes
can significantly develop media competence of students, including critical thinking and perception
