Media literacy thinking hats
Analyse how each type of media works – why it was made, who for, and how to read and understand it.
Media literacy empowers students to critically evaluate and consider how they consume media.
Explore different types of media under one of four 'thinking hats': advertising, entertainment, news and social media. Students will think about how each type of media works – consider why it was made, who the main audience is and what the key messages are.
