- 24. Media Literacy as a Civic Competency Media education is an essential step in the long march towards a truly participatory democracy, and the democratization of our institutions. Widespread media literacy is essential if all citizens are to wield power, make rational decisions, become effective change agents, and have an effective involvement with the media. -Len Masterman, 1985
- 25. Questioning All Forms of Authority Media literacy, because it emphasizes a critique of textual authority, invites students to identify the cultural codes that structure an author’s work, understand how these codes function as part of a social system, and disrupt the text through alternative interpretations. In learning to critically read media messages, citizens are developing the abilities to gather accurate, relevant information about their society and to question authority (both textual and, by implication, institutional). - Renee Hobbs, 1998
- 26. Agents of Social Change When people have digital and media literacy competencies, they recognize personal, corporate and political agendas and are empowered to speak out on behalf of the missing voices and omitted perspectives in our communities. By identifying and attempting to solve problems, people use their powerful voices and their rights under law to improve the world around them. -Renee Hobbs, 2010

Editor's Notes
- These 6-year olds watched a YouTube video, then made their own video to ask questions to the author. After seeing the children’s video, the author responded, sending them back a YouTube video. The children gained confidence in asking questions and actively used the questioning process to learn.
- An initiative of the PBS News Hour, PBS Student Reporting Labs is a digital and media literacy program that reaches thousands of high school students across the United States. Students learn about their communities, the environment, law and politics, the economy – and work collaboratively to create a video news segment,

- Our research investigated learners who participated in the program: 544 students with 40% minority teens
- Children in Grade 3 turned the teacher’s lesson upside down when they started asking questions during their teacher’s carefully planning fairy-tale lesson. They transformed the activity into learning about homelessness in their community – why it occurs and what can be done about it.
- Learning to make media increased creative, collaboration and technical skills, improved their ability to identify the author’s purpose while watching a video, and contributed to advancing civic engagement – being interested in using the power of communication to make a difference in the world.
- Digital and media literacy helps children and teens learn to use the power of communication – as both creators and consumers. Media literacy is like driver’s training for participating in the s1st century.
