What advantages can teachers and educators reap from participating in the Media Education For All (ME4A) initiative?
YEAP THIAM HOONG, KENN
Head of Programme Faculty of Communications and Industrial Creatives, Media and Communications LecturerSharing information with your students is easy, but ensuring its accuracy, legitimacy, and credibility can be challenging. We live in a world bombarded with an overflow of information, where incorrect information is often hidden. As educators, it is our responsibility to make sure our students receive correct information. We also need to teach them about information literacy and guide them on how to access media in a more effective way. Join us in our movement to form a large community of educators and build a media and information literate society.

Semuanya bermula dari rumah, sekolah dan komuniti! Dengan perkembangan teknologi yang pesat, SEKARANG adalah masa yang sesuai untuk MEMBERI KEKUATAN kemahiran literasi media dan maklumat kepada warga Malaysia. Menjadi celik media dan maklumat memberikan kekuatan kepada orang ramai untuk berfikir secara kritis tentang maklumat dan penggunaan media serta alat digital. Ia membantu mereka membuat pilihan yang terinformasi tentang bagaimana mereka berpartisipasi dalam pembangunan damai, keadilan, kebebasan ekspresi, dialog, akses kepada maklumat, dan pembangunan berkelanjutan. Kemahiran literasi media dan maklumat membolehkan warga Malaysia memahami dan berpartisipasi dalam wacana atau perbincangan awam, bahkan membantu membuat keputusan yang baik ketika memilih pemimpin dalam pilihan raya. Rakyat yang celik media dapat menerapkan budaya berfikir secara kritis ketika menilai mesej atau maklumat dari sebarang media, tanpa memandang pandangan atau posisi mereka. Mari menjadi generasi yang celik literasi media dan maklumat!”
