Description
Summary:"The New Media Literacy Handbook is an invaluable resource for educators seeking information on, and guidance in, navigating through the vast new media landscape. The book has been designed to help teachers develop their own visual literacy skills, become more sophisticated and reflective users of media in the classroom and in general, and develop evaluation criteria for media products. In addition to their overview and evaluation guide, the authors provide information on how new media can be used in several academic disciplines - language arts, history, science, and art - and specific products and Web sites to explore. Clearly written, with helpful exercises for teachers included in each chapter, The New Media Literacy Handbook is an essential tool for today's educators."--Jacket.
