ASSIGNMENT:
1. What is media literacy?
Media literacy is the ability to access, analyze, assess, make, and act using all shapes of
communication. It simply strengthens the foundation of traditional literacy and further gives way to new
forms of reading and writing. Media literacy aims to empower the sense of critical thinking and
making, communicating effectively, and also promotes being an active citizen.
4. What are the similarities between media, information, and technology literacy?
Media, information, and technology literacy are all similar in terms of goals. These are the three
most prevailing concepts that focus on a critical approach towards media messages. They all share the
common goal of cultivating people’s ability to access, understand, use, evaluate, and create media
messages, information, or content using information technology.
