Europos komunikacijos ir švietimo politikos dokumentuose nuolat kalbama apie žiniasklaidos raštingumą, kaip būtiną sąlygą, ugdant aktyvius piliečius ir sąmoningus vartotojus informacinėje visuomenėje. Esminį vaidmenį sistemingame žiniasklaidos raštingumo ugdyme atlieka formalioji bendrojo lavinimo švietimo sistema. Taigi, kyla klausimas, kokias kompetencijas turėtų įgyti būsimieji mokytojai studijų arba mokymų metu? Pagrindinis šio straipsnio tikslas – išsiaiškinti, kaip vykdomos universitetinių studijų programos žiniasklaidos ir komunikacijos srityje galėtų prisidėti prie žiniasklaidos raštingumo ugdymo programų aukštojo mokslo sistemoje.Autorės sutinka, jog žiniasklaidos raštingumo ugdymo programų įtraukimas į aukštojo mokslo studijų programas priklauso nuo nacionalinės žiniasklaidos ir švietimo politikos; jau vykdomų aukštojo mokslo bei tolesnio ugdymo programų; žiniasklaidos raštingumo ugdymo koncepcijos; vietinio žiniasklaidos konteksto.Remiantis žiniasklaidos ugdymo komponentais, autorės rekomenduoja žiniasklaidos raštingumo ugdymo modulių turinį būsimiems mokytojams. Tokiems moduliams sukurti, būtinos žiniasklaidos studijų ir pedagogikos žinios, kadangi visa programa pagrįsta žiniasklaidos ir pedagogikos diskursu. Media education as a part of higher education curriculum*Halliki Harro-Loit and Kadri Ugur SummaryEuropean communication and education policy documents repeatedly refer to media literacy as a prerequisite of successfully performing active citizens and conscious consumers in information society. Substantial part of the task to provide systematic media education lies on the formal school-based education system. Hence a question arises about the competences teachers should acquire at university or from further training courses. The aim of this article is to examine how existing university curricula on media and communication could contribute to the development of media education programs in higher education system.The authors take into consideration that the media education programs in curricula of a higher education system depend on the national media and education policy; already available programs in higher education curricula and further education projects; concept of media education in national curricula; local media context.Proceeding from the media education components the authors propose a possible content of media education modules that should be available for the students in teacher training. In order to create such modules media studies and pedagogy should be combined and the whole program should be embedded in the discourse of media and pedagogy.Key words: media education, media literacy, media education components, higher education curriculum, European communication policy

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.

Critical Discourses

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.

Teachers Perspectives

Media literacy is an emergent field in developed countries and became an integral part of the school system and has been integrated in the educational curriculum. The present paper highlights the teachers’ perception regarding media literacy awareness and their opinions and readiness of media literacy at school level. The study used constructivist learning theory for theoretical framework. This study supports constructivist learning theory that transforms students being passive recipient to more active participant in getting the information for their learning process and hence helps in preparing children to explore, investigate and experiment with the media available in the classroom. The study has shown that teachers are not well aware of media literacy concept and the teaching of media literacy through rote learning or traditional practice may not produce productive results. The curriculum needs to aim at the active participation of students by making the lessons functional and would provide students with competences and critical approach towards mediated content rather than becoming passive consumer of media.

The formation of media information literacy and media culture in accordance with their age, individual and other characteristics is defined as one of the priority areas of media education in Ukraine. That is why in the process of integration of Ukrainian education into the European space and providing the state with measures for information security of the country, the issues of media literacy of modern teachers, including professional teachers, become especially acute and relevant. The purpose of this article is to determine the content of the concept of «media literacy», analysis of the legal framework for the introduction of media education in Ukraine and foreign and domestic experience in the formation of media literacy in future teachers of professional training. The following research methods were used in the work: empirical method of collecting and systematizing materials related to the study of media literacy in future teachers of professional training; terminological analysis, as a result of which the definitions of a number of terms were specified: media literacy, media competence, media education, media pedagogy, professional training, teacher of professional training. The presented material of the article allowed to make the following conclusions: the analysis of foreign and domestic experience of formation of media literacy at future teachers of vocational training gave the chance to define the maintenance of concept «media literacy of the modern teacher of professional training». The analysis of the legal framework for the introduction of media education in Ukraine showed that the media educator, who is included in the media education system and has media literacy skills, is a key figure at all levels of modern education: from preschool to higher.

Media literacy is recognized as a basic, vital skill for European citizens. It must be formed during life, at all stages of personality development. That is why we have chosen the leading European countries such as Finland, Sweden, France, Germany, the United Kingdom and Spain to analyze the current state of media education. Europe should be at the forefront of media literacy, as historically this region of the world has become the cradle of media civilization, a center for coordinating discussions of philosophical, cultural and technical development of the media. The article deals with the analysis of educational and methodical support of the European system of educators’ media education. The importance of media education of educators as the greatest agents of direct educational influence on the younger generation, whose media education is a requirement of the time, is revealed. The need for the development of non-formal and informal media education of educators is identified, as the media component can take place in any lesson and in extracurricular activities. Common components of the organization system of this process (participants, content, forms, methods, tools) are identified and educational and methodological resources are described, which are publicly available and can be useful to educators regardless of country of residence, citizenship or language.As a result of the research, we made the following conclusions: specialized centers offer a wide range of short-term training courses for teachers of various topics; forms of professional development in media education of teachers are different (distance courses, trainings, seminars, workshops, conferences, educational films, etc.); modern scientific, educational, methodical literature for teachers is available (monographs, professional journals, lesson plans, information packages); non-formal and informal preparation of teachers for media education activities is diverse in content, forms, means and methods, but remains fragmentary, not systematic, which does not allow to solve our issue comprehensively, and therefore it needs further development and critical analysis.

It is difficult to set educational standards in Switzerland: given the complexity of the political structure and the different languages spoken, 26 educational systems are in function. Most pupils are familiar with the practical use of ICT. But few of them are taught to analyse the media themselves. Media education is integrated to other branches of learning. Thus, it depends most of the time on the good will of the teachers! In the past five years, high speed connections to the Internet have strongly increased in schools, thanks to a public-private partnership launched by the State. The program also improved ICT skills among teachers. Many locally based projects encourage pupils and students to use ICT to learn. Multimedia products crafted in schools are even broadcasted on TV websites. However, media education remains uneven among teachers. The use of audiovisual resources in the classroom is decreasing. Most teachers express reluctance towards the media. When it comes to life long learning, software proficiency is more sought after than media knowledge. En Suiza, saturada de medios, compartimentada en 26 sistemas educativos propios, los alumnos se impregnan de una cultura que favorece naturalmente los usos prácticos de los medios de comunicación frente al análisis crítico. La educación de los medios es a menudo «integrada en otras ramas de la enseñanza». ¡Es decir, dejada a la libre elección de los profesores! Gracias a la cooperación público-privado, se ha dado un fuerte impulso en la Confederación para conectar los colegios a Internet de alta velocidad y para formar a los profesores en el uso pedagógico de las tecnologías. Además, a nivel local, se realizan acertadas acciones que en muchos casos desembocan en aplicaciones prácticas muy estimulantes: los alumnos aprenden a dominar la imagen, el sonido y la información a través de producciones originales. Pero globalmente, el panorama es algo desalentador: los profesores acceden a una formación muy desigual de los medios y las TIC, utilizan menos los audiovisuales que antiguamente y la mayoría desconfían bastante de los medios.

The prevailing assumption that race-relations have equalized in America is largely based on an incorrect and misinformed understanding of current socio-economic policies and public behaviors. The continued racialization and discrimination towards African-Americans may be linked to strategic efforts that seek to preserve the dominance and authority of whiteness. This paper examines such claims within the context of the post civil rights movement, with specific attention given to the media, education system, and implementations of social justice.
