Media and Information Literacy have always been close to my heart. Back in 2018, before the pandemic hits the world, I consider this topic for my masters’ degree thesis title. I know it will be a great subject for my study but pandemic came and I had to stop pursuing my thesis title. Now, I have to revise my thesis title and I always wanted to incorporate it to media and information literacy in the tertiary education level. We all know that this 2000’s information explosion happened because of the technology we had today, with just a click of a finger information overload will come to life. And as an information professional I have to discern certain types of information from fact to fake news and many more. Misinformation, disinformation and malinformation are rampant nowadays. Scams and many other things happen on the internet and we have to be vigilant with dealing in this kind of post or threat. This course helps me a lot in understanding and digs deeper into my core and knowledge about media and information literacy. It saddens me that I cannot showcase all the topics that I wanted to include due to time constraints and I’m not feeling really well these past few days. I just have to make what I can to be able to share to other people at least a piece of my learning from this course which I enjoyed doing so much. I greatly delight in learning and doing these module courses from the University of the Philippines Open University, time is of essence that before I knew it, I’m in the latter part of the course. Now, I can share the most basic or introduction of my learning from the course that I take, I take ride in finishing this course and looks forward to enrol on more certificate courses like this in different and varied topics. More power and God bless the organizers of this project! Kudos and keep up the good works! Salute!

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Graduate Attributes for an unknown
future
Graduate attributes are the qualities, skills and
understandings a university community agrees its
students should develop during their time with the
institution.
These attributes include but go beyond the
disciplinary expertise or technical knowledge that
has traditionally formed the core of most university
courses.
They are qualities that also prepare graduates as
agents of social good in an unknown future.
(Bowden et al. 2000)
6. 6
Multiple journalisms & the unknown
future
Journalism is not moving from A to B, from one stable
state in postwar America to some new, alternate state
today. Journalism is instead moving from one to many,
from a set of roles whose description and daily patterns
were coherent enough to merit one label to one where
the gap between what makes Nate Silver a journalist and
what makes Kevin Sites a journalist continues to widen.
We’re not shifting from big news organizations to small
ones, or from slow reporting to fast. The dynamic range
of journalism is increasing along several axes at once.
Post-Industrial Journalism: Adapting to the Present

Evolve the industry: lower our
fists
•There has only been a relatively brief period in
human history when these ideas of editorial
independence within a huge industrial media
structure have existed in the way we are now
trying to preserve. I don't think we need to
preserve it. Well maybe we should be trying to
preserve it but also evolve it and lower our fists
a little. That's one of the reasons I think
journalistic integrity is a better word than
independence.

Basic skills agenda
A variety of studies of what skills are valued by
journalism employers (Callaghan and McManus
2010; Nankervis 2005; Dickson and Brandon 2000;
Criado and Kraeplin 2003; Huang et al 2003)
they prioritize traditional skills including basic writing,
punctuation and grammar over computer skills and
technological literacies.
13. 13
Apprentice/Cadetship
model
What are the implications for innovation if what
has gone before is always presented as best
practice? Where, indeed, when one trainer
explicitly states, "we are trying to create
journalists in our own image, it is a chance to
shape people" and further, "we try to influence
them culturally"?
This constant emphasis on replication would
seem to leave little space for the notions of
innovation and change.
Mandy Oakham 2006
14. 14
Hospital model
Journalism education programs have an
opportunity to become “anchor institutions” in the
emerging informational ecosystem....Just as
teaching hospitals don t merely lecture medical‖
students, but also treat patients and pursue
research, journalism programs should not limit
themselves to teaching journalists, but should
produce copy and become laboratories of
innovation as well.
They should beta test new models for journalism and
understand how journalistic ecosystems emerge as
well as contribute to the policymaking process that
underpins them.
C.W. Anderson et al 2011
16. 16
Journalism Ideology
Public service: journalists provide a public service (as
watchdogs or ‘newshounds’, active collectors and
disseminators of information);
Objectivity: journalists are impartial, neutral, objective,
fair and (thus) credible;
Autonomy: journalists must be autonomous, free and
independent in their work;
Immediacy: journalists have a sense of immediacy,
actuality and speed (inherent in the concept of ‘news’);
Ethics: journalists have a sense of ethics, validity and
legitimacy.
(Deuze 2005: 447)
17. 17
Journalism Process
Access/Observation – access to news events and
news data is negotiated and reporting involves first
hand observation and analysis
Selection/filtering – reporting resources are prioritised
according to perceived public impact
Processing/editing – stories are edited and packaged
Distribution – stories are published and publicised
Interpretation – audience/public reaction is monitored
and engaged

Journalist ‘soft skills’
Mindset: “a mindset that wants to improve journalism, not
simply replicate or salvage it”
Being Networked: “Editing, assigning and reporting all
become tasks wholly or partially delegated to the network”
Persona: “The more we feel engaged with a journalist
through his/her persona, the more we want to hear what
they have to say about the world.”
Post-Industrial Journalism: Adapting to the Present C.W.
Anderson, Emily Bell & Clay Shirky Tow Center Columbia
University
21. 21
Journalist ‘hard skills’
Specialist knowledge: “the complexity of information and
the speed at which people wish to have it explained and
contextualized leaves little room for the average
generalist.”
Data & Statistics “the volume of available data on many of
the important actors—businesses, politicians, priests,
criminals—has grown dramatically”
Understanding Metrics and Audiences: “in today’s
fragmented and fraying world, knowledge of how
audiences consume information, and whether what you
write,record, or shoot reaches the people whom you want
to see it, becomes critical”
Coding: “every journalist needs to understand at a basic
literacy level what code is, what it can do, and how to
communicate with those who are more proficient.”
22. 22
Storytelling: “We focus less on these skills
because we do not expect the basic skills of
being able to identify and report a story to
change, and they remain central to a journalist’s
skill set. As part of technical literacy, journalists
need to understand how each of these skills
might be affected by a development in
technology or a shift in human behavior.
Narrative can be created by the new skills of
aggregation, which implies understanding
sources and verification of disparate material.
One aspect of working with networks and
crowds is the journalistic skill of aggregation”
Journalist ‘hard skills’
23. 23
Project management: “As we see more effective models of
journalism emerge from a remaking of the existing
process, one widely held observation is that journalists are
having to move from a world where the sole focus of their
activity was their own stories to a host of different
concerns....being able to keep across all parts of the
process and understand how they can be brought
together to produce something that works.”
Journalist ‘hard skills’

When most journalism degrees were established graduates expected to graduate into positions within established media organisations, now there are a range of hybrid organisations which blur the line between what would once have been regarded as journalism and what would have been regarded as marketing. The AFL now produces a range of its own football media. Charities and human rights organizations are increasingly producing a range of documentaries, photojournalism projects and publications. These types of initiatives cannot be easily identified as just journalism or just marketing. Margaret Simmons who is a very experienced journalist and editor who has just set up a graduate journalism degree at Melbourne University reminds us of two things in this quote which present major challenges to journalism educators.
The current industrial structure of journalism - which is currently being blown apart by changes in technology, community infrastructure and globalization - is a relatively recent phenomenon and although elements of it - such as editorial independence - have become enshrined as key ethical platforms, these are not in fact inviolable.
Part of our job as journalism academics and educators is to think about these very fundamental issues and contribute to the evolution of industry thinking and industry practice and as Simmons suggests this is not going to happen while we are in “preserve” at all costs mode.
