[edit] To do list

  • We need to copyedit this. "It's" is not encylopedic. Can someone pelease work on this. (unsigned comment)

--

  • list of media literacy proponents needs editing: everyone who's critical of mainstream media thinks media literacy is important. the list needs to be narrowed down to people for whom ML advocay or research is a focus. suggest removing: marshall mcluhan, bob mcchesney (he is, if anything, critical of the (commercialized) US media literacy movement).
  • separate list for researchers who have influenced ML (this would include Paulo Freire and the people above who have been removed from the proponents list )
  • external links needs sorting in order of importance (or alphabet at least)
  • needs links and mentions of media literacy in international conventions (e.g. UNESCO Gruenwald Declaration, Vienna Declaration, etc.)
  • link to UNESCO survey on media eduction (edited by David Buckingham)- use search engine!
  • clearer distinction between different national movements & approaches. US is very particular, and the 'protectionist stance' has been discredited since the early 90s. also, most approaches focus on critical reception, but there are also approaches that include critical production (though this is somewhat controversial also, Masterman warns of the "technology trap").
  • the right wing media literacy (?) people should have their own section. they're more of an exception.
  • more on ML movements in Asia: Japan, Taiwan, Korea.

[edit] Cleanup preamble

Gawd. What a mess. "But it's so much more!" Sounds like a bad advert. OK, major rewrite. Any issues? I also added a references, and converted some links into refs. I agree with others; this article still needs a lot of work. --Bhuston 11:53, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
