Education in and for the media is doubtlessly necessary and is very slowly slipping into regular education, but not very satisfactorily. This work must be fleshed out by the media’s effort to take some responsibility for the educational work as well, not by educating directly, but by trying to match their broadcasts with the values that education is trying to convey. Audiovisual Councils can play a role in driving media education, helping the educational system to meet its responsibility to educate children to use properly the television, the Internet and other regular screens habitually surrounding them. At the same time, these Councils can help media professionals enforce and interpret legislation about audiovisual contents freely and responsibly, thereby facilitating self-regulation. The article contributes the experience garnered by the Audiovisual Council of Catalonia in promoting media literacy. La educación en y para los medios de comunicación es una necesidad indudable que, muy lentamente y de forma poco satisfactoria, se está introduciendo en la educación reglada. Dicha labor, por otra parte, debería verse complementada por un esfuerzo de los medios audiovisuales de hacerse responsables también de la tarea educativa, no educando directamente, pero sí procurando que sus emisiones fueran coherentes con los valores que la educación procura transmitir. Los Consejos Audiovisuales pueden ejercer una función en el impulso de la educación en medios, propiciando que el sistema educativo asuma la responsabilidad de formar a los menores para el buen uso de la televisión, de Internet y del resto de «pantallas» que constituyen su entorno habitual. Al mismo tiempo dichos Consejos están en condiciones de ayudar a los profesionales de los medios a aplicar e interpretar la legislación relativa a los contenidos audiovisuales de una forma libre y responsable, facilitando de este modo la autorregulación. El artículo aporta las experiencias realizadas por el Consejo Audiovisual de Cataluña para promover la alfabetización mediática.

Статья посвящена анализу феномена медиаобразования в современном мире. Исходя из работ отечественных и зарубежных исследователей, автор полагает, что современная ситуация в мире делает медиаобразование необходимым атрибутом каждого человека, который использует интернет. Постулируется всепроникающий характер средств массовой коммуникации (СМК) в жизни современного человека и общества. Любая сфера человеческой деятельности (от труда до развлечения) в той или иной мере связана с медиапространством, будь то интернет или телевидение. Обучение потенциальных реципиентов грамотному взаимодействию с медиасредой — насущная педагогическая задача. В настоящее время особенно остро стоит проблема дифференциации реципиентом предлагаемого СМК контента на заслуживающий доверия или внимания и так называемый «информационный шум». В этом вопросе может помочь только целенаправленно воспитываемая медиаграмотность. The paper is devoted to the analysis of the phenomenon of media education in the modern world. Based on the work of domestic and foreign researchers, the author believes that the modern situation in the world makes media education a necessary attribute of every person who uses the Internet. The work proves the pervasive nature of the mass communication media (SMK) in the life of modern man and society. Any sphere of human activity (from labor to entertainment) is in one way or another connected with the media space, whether it is the Internet or television. Therefore, training potential recipients in competent interaction with the media medium is an urgent pedagogical task. Currently, the problem of the recipient differentiating the content offered by the QMS into trustworthy or noteworthy and the so-called «information noise» is especially acute. Only purposefully nurtured media literacy can help in this matter.

The theoretical research focuses on the educational experience for the formation of media literacy among school-age children in different countries around the world. The article presents various options for the formation of media literacy, based on three educational models. According to the first model, media education is represented in the form of a compulsory subject in schools, which is studied by students in different grades. According to the second educational model, media habits are acquired within the interdisciplinary (integrated) approach – the use of the media in traditional school subjects, including native and foreign languages, literature, social sciences. The third model offers practical and informal integration of media education as a supplement and replacement of specific subjects or the intersection between them. The article examines in detail the media training opportunities offered in Canada, the United Kingdom, Finland and Spain, as their experience in media education is applied in a number of other countries around the world. Special attention is paid to the first steps in the introduction of media literacy training among students in Bulgaria, which is carried out only in the last 5-6 years.

This article seeks to question the emphasis on critical reading in media education curricula, both in terms of the assumptions about children's existing knowledge which it entails and in terms of its implications for classroom practice. The first part of the article draws on recent research on children's understanding of television, and considers the social functions of critical discourses about the medium. Summarising findings from the author's research, it points to the inter-relationships between cognitive, affective and social factors in children's talk. The second part of the article draws on recent classroom research in the field to consider the processes by which children acquire critical discourses about the media, and the limitations of a purely analytical approach. The article concludes by arguing for the need to develop a more complex theoretical basis for media education pedagogy, based on the interaction between critical analysis and other teaching strategies.

O advento das mídias ocasionou impactos significativos no campo educacional, de forma que o ensino, a aprendizagem e a intervenção no mundo não puderam ser mais como antes. Diante do desafio de se reinventar e se adaptar metodologicamente às demandas geradas pelos novos dispositivos técnicos de comunicação, a escola passou a ser questionada não só quanto a seu papel precípuo, mas também sobre que resposta é capaz de oferecer às questões que surgiram envolvendo o uso das mídias em toda a sociedade. Entende-se que, nesse cenário, são forjadas propostas de mídia-educação irreflexivas e acríticas, mas também proposituras emancipadoras e críticas, as quais este artigo busca elucidar por meio de uma pesquisa bibliográfica.Palavras-chave: Escola.
