Media Literacy Training

No longer is it enough to be able to read the printed word; children, youth, and adults, too, need the ability to both critically interpret the powerful images of a multimedia culture and express themselves in multiple media forms. This session will show you what media literacy is, how media tries to manipulate you, how advertising is like a drug and what you can do to counter it.

This training is appropriate for youth ages 10 and up to attend with their parents.

PRESENTED BY:
Chris Walker and Yuri Perez , Granite School District Prevention Specialists

January 26 (Thursday)
Columbus Center (2530 S 500 E)
6:30pm - 8:30 — FREE

random quote:

"But could not our situation be compared to one of a menacing epidemic? People are unable to view this situation in its true light, for their eyes are blinded by passion. General fear and anxiety create hatred and aggressiveness. The adaptation to warlike aims and activities has corrupted the mentality of man; as a result,
intelligent, objective and humane thinking has hardly any effect and is even suspected and persecuted as unpatriotic."

Albert Einstein
