Abstract
Educators in the United States have reported a huge decline in media literacy among American students. The problem has been exacerbated by the proliferation of mass media, and the digital age with its ease for individual citizens, politicians, and corporations to reach the world with often one-sided messages. The panel will discuss media literacy and teaching strategies to improve literacy in a world filled with diversions, distractions, and inaccuracies.
Panelists: Martin Phillips, Assistant Professor, Lynn University; Gary Carlin, Assistant Professor, Advertising and Public Relations, Lynn University.
