Extractions: Media literacy is the understanding of the structure and function of media messages and the organizations that create them. Broadly defined, media is a term for anything that communicates, such as books, magazines, computers, radio, film and television. Media literacy is the ability to interpret and create personal meaning from the hundreds, even thousands, of verbal and visual messages we are exposed to every day. The goal of media literacy education is to enable the individual to select, to challenge and question, and to use media actively and consciously for one's own purposes. Young people are living in a media-rich environment where they receive most of their information and entertainment through the electronic media of television, radio, and the Internet, but also from newspapers, magazines, and film. Media literacy education helps students to critically evaluate the incredible variety of information to which they are exposed, to understand the power and influence of the media, and to become informed, discriminating and active media consumers.

Here are fourteen of my favorite practices for helping students achieve their character potential.
