In today's world, students need to be more prepared than ever to critically examine the media and messages they consume. Together, we'll look at tools for helping students to analyze the messages and mediums of their media. To truly master these skills, students need to get the chance to apply these skills to creating their own media, however the tools that our students can use to communicate their ideas are constantly expanding. Instead of fretting over which tools to teach our students, we'll examine some skills and mindsets that are broadly transferable across many different types of literacies.
