About the Book

Media Literacy is a critical skill students must learn to succeed in today's tech-driven, media-saturated society. This book helps teachers, parents, and students understand media literacy, and how to implement and share that knowledge with others. As an experienced media literacy expert and teacher, Nick Pernisco provides a practical guide for learning this important skill and implementing it in classrooms to meet Common Core standards. This is a must-read for anyone interested in learning how to interpret the enormous amounts of information we are exposed to everyday, both in traditional media and online. In addition to explaining what media literacy is and how it can be used practically in any learning environment, the book also includes dozens of lesson plans to help teach media literacy using different types of media. Educators will find these activities useful in helping to solidify the concepts explained earlier in the book. Advanced Praise: "Mr. Pernisco has provided a manual for understanding and teaching media literacy that is written in plain English. Teachers can take the activities provided and use them in their classroom tomorrow." - "Mathew Needleman," Instructional Technology Specialist, Founder VideointheClassroom.com "By sharing his personal journey of discovery, Nick guides his readers to a richer understanding of what it means to be media literate in today's world. Nick's simple and direct writing style reaches all audiences. While much of the book is written for teachers, several chapters can be used directly with students from middle school to college very effectively." - "Karen Ambrosh," President, National Telemedia Council, High School English, Communication, and Media Teacher
