The Critical Media Literacy Guide
Brill (Verlag)
978-90-04-40451-9 (ISBN)
Over half the world’s population is now online, interconnected through a globally-networked media and consumer society. The convergence of information, media, and technology has created the predominant ecosystem of our time. Yet, most educational institutions are still teaching what and how they have for centuries, and are thus increasingly out-of-date and out-of-touch with our current needs. The Critical Media Literacy Guide: Engaging Media and Transforming Education provides a theoretical framework and practical applications for educators and teacher education programs to transform education by putting critical media literacy into action in classrooms with students from kindergarten to university.
Douglas Kellner and Jeff Share lay out the evolution of thinking and development of media and cultural studies, from the Frankfurt School to current intersectional theories about information and power that highlight the importance of race, gender, class, and sexuality. They provide insightful and accessible entry into theorizing education and information communication technologies through linking the politics of representation with critical pedagogy.
The increase in fake news, alternative facts, bots, and trolls, challenge our abilities to judge credibility and recognize bias. Kellner and Share present a critical lens and strategies to contextualize and analyze the dominant ideologies going viral across social media platforms and disseminated globally from enormous transnational corporations. The Critical Media Literacy Guide is a powerful resource to analyze and challenge representations and narratives of multiple forms of identity, privilege, and oppression. Since the struggle for social justice and democracy require new theories and pedagogies to maneuverer the constantly changing terrain, this book is essential for all educators.
Douglas Kellner, Ph.D. (1973), is George Kneller Chair in the Philosophy of Education at UCLA and is author of many books on social theory, politics, history, and culture. His most recent books are American Nightmare: Donald Trump, Media Spectacle, and Authoritarian Populism (Sense Publishers, 2016); and The American Horror Show: Election 2016 and the Ascendency of Donald J. Trump (Sense Publishers, 2017). Jeff Share, Ph.D. (2006), University of California, Los Angeles, is a Faculty Advisor in the Teacher Education Program. He has published and taught widely about critical media literacy, including Media Literacy is Elementary: Teaching Youth to Critically Read and Create Media (Peter Lang, 2015).
