Media Literacy Week: Examining representations in children’s television (Stage 3)

Media representations portray people, places and ideas; media literate students understand how and why these representations are constructed.
ACTIVITY OUTLINE:
This Media Literacy Week, join the ACTF and ACMI Education for an interactive virtual workshop examining representations and points of view in children’s television. Students will view and respond to short clips drawn from children’s television programs while critically reflecting on their roles as audience members and content creators.
