Background: This group of ten students meet each week for an hour to study media literacy.
We started out by comparing how two different authors presented the story "Rapunzel."
The two versions were very different. These students have also recently studied the
Sunday State newspaper comparing the number of articles written about men versus
the number of articles written about women. They then brain stormed as to why they
thought the State included more articles about men's sports teams rather than women's
sports teams.
Project Description: The bulletin board is a web showing a person thinking of an idea,
a person making the media and different types of media - newspaper, videotape, computer
program, magazine and book. The students are so proud of their work. Students from
other classes have come to me to find out when they can work on media literacy. It's exciting!
This is a close up of the bulletin board.
These are the students who designed and made their bulletin board on "All Media Is Created."
