So, media literacy is actually the ability to sift through and analyze the messages that inform, entertain and sell to us every day. It is the ability to bring critical thinking skills to bear on all media, for example, from music videos and Web environments to product placement in films and virtual displays on Extreme Games skateboards. Media literacy education enables tools to help people critically analyze messages to detect propaganda, censorship, and bias in news and public affairs programming (and the reasons for such), and to understand how structural features. It is important for FCM students to have a good command of media literacy as we may need various kind of information to have the best insight of our studies. Media literacy also teach us to construct our own words on any topics, that prevent any activity of plagiarism.
