Films on Media Literacy?

[Natasha Casey]

Looking for a film to show my undergraduate media literacy class at the start of the semester (introduction to the subject area) and was wondering if you know of any films/docs in this category - I have searched but not turned up much (beyond the outdated ones at films.com).  Cheers!

Check out my huge list of "streaming videos" (www.frankwbaker.com/streaming_ml) you can use to teach with and about media literacy. Also during the recent Media LIteracy Week, in Canada, MediaSmart.ca posted several excellent shorts explaining the media literacy core concepts.  Frank Baker

Frank - searched for that MediaSmart site to no avail - do you have an alternate url for it?

Go to Edutopia.org  and then search for the video MediaSmart...that's where you'll find it.
