New media and information communication technologies (ICT) can be integrated into classrooms to provide alternative resources beyond textbooks, allow participation in online discussions with global groups, and enable the production of multimedia presentations and other interactive teaching materials. Teachers should have students deconstruct media, conduct research using online resources, and construct their own media productions. As society becomes more complex and symbol-rich, schools must help students develop new literacies to function as informed citizens and in a changing world.

2. Reasons using new media/ ICT
Provides:
 Access-- Liberate teachers and students
from textbook format. Provide alternative
resources- Teachers and students will be
able to research through online resources.
 Global Point of View-- Students and
teachers will participate online discussion
groups, weblogs, wikis, and listservs.
 New tools for classrooms– Students and
teachers will be able to produce media
presentations, learning
objects, interactive teaching material.

3. HOW to Integrate ICTs
 De-construct: (Read Media) Media
Literacy Activities (deconstructing
webpages, news, advertisement, and
newspapers; POV (point of view)
exercise, etc.)
 Research: (Use Media) Information
Literacy (Library Skills, researching
internet resources, etc.)
 Construct: (Write Media) Media
Production (Create an oral history
project, video
documentary, website, webquest, weblog,
and multimedia presentation)

4. As we enter the twenty first century, it is
essential that the schools be places that help
students better understand the complex,
symbol-rich culture in which they live in.
A new vision of literacy is essential if educators
are serious about the broad goals of
education: preparing students to function as
informed and effective citizens in a democratic
society; preparing students to realize personal
fulfillment; and preparing students to function
effectively in a rapidly changing world that
demands new, multiple literacies.
Renee Hobbs, 1997

5. It is no longer enough to simply read
and write. Students must also
become literate in the
understanding of visual images.
Our children must learn how to spot
a stereotype, isolate a social cliché
and distinguish facts from
propaganda, analysis from
banter, important news from
coverage.
Ernest Boyer

6. Media Education is both
essential to the
exercising of our
democratic rights and a
necessary safeguard
against the worst
excesses of media
manipulation for political
purposes.
Len
Masterman

7. The aim is to develop an
awareness about print and the
newer technologies of
communications so that we
can orchestrate them, …. And
get the best out of each in the
educational process.
Without understanding of media
languages and grammars, we
cannot hope to achieve a
contemporary awareness of
the world in which we live.
Marshall McLuhan

8. A democratic civilization
will save itself only if it
makes the language of
the image into a
stimulus for critical
reflection, not an
invitation to hypnosis.
Umberto Eco (l979)

9.  Education must begin
with the solution of the
teacher-student
contradiction, by
reconciling the poles of
the contradiction so that
both are simultaneously
teachers and students.
Paulo Freire

gives the victory sign
at a political rally,
Liverpool, 1951

12. The "V" for victory that Winston Churchill used (with the
palm facing outward, same as the American sign for
"peace"), when the palm is reversed, it means something
else...
If a person used two fingers to order two beers in a
British pub.. it has insulting connotations…

13. the two fingers in a 1st grade math class may
refer to the number "two"

17. What this results tell us?
BLAME somebody or something
 No parent involvement?
 Too much TV/ New media
 No enough reading
Or question the data?
 Who did the research?
 Who sponsored it?

20.  We may simply say
language evolves?
 Today, can we read and
understand old English ?
 We may also argue that
our students are not
learning another
language…

30. Conclusion
„Today, a confluence of events is creating the
perfect storm for significantly advancing
education. With a growing inventory of openly
available educational tools and resources, and
with an increasingly engaged and connected
community, transformative opportunities for
education abound.
The good news is that the emerging open
education movement in higher education and
beyond is beginning to change the way
educators use, share, and improve
educational resources and knowledge by
making them open and freely available.‟
(Iiyoshi & Kumar 2008:2)

And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.
