Seeing & Believing: How to Teach Media Literacy in the English Classroom

by Ellen Krueger and Mary T Christel

Book Overview

Whether it's television, film, print, or the Internet, our world is saturated with visual images. That flow has become so persistent, so insistent, we can no longer dismiss its impact on our students' perceptions. We need to make media literacy a vital component of language arts education and equip our students to analyze and respond critically to media texts. Seeing & Believing was written to assist you with that process.

Illuminating!

This book has completely changed the way I view the art of teaching. My students now enjoy coming to class, they pay attention, they come every day, ready to learn. Ellen Krueger hits a homerun with this brilliant text! I guarantee you will never look at the media OR the classroom the same way. 5 out of 5!
