Beskrivning

Presenting the concept of the ‘third space’ as a transformative and dynamic environment where students engage in media literacy education, fostering critical thinking, collaboration, and inclusivity, this book offers a comprehensive exploration of the role of ‘media mavens’: a range of school education professionals, including teachers and librarians, with a shared and collective responsibility for driving media literacy in the context of the ‘third place’. Combining practical applications with pedagogical theories, the book offers a solid foundation for designing and implementing impactful media literacy instruction. Chapters present a clear understanding of the importance and value of media literacy as a crucial skill set in the digital age, ensuring students are equipped to navigate and critically engage with media content. Focusing on the "third space", the book encourages readers to reimagine libraries beyond traditional roles, showing how these spaces can be transformed into vibrant, interactive zones that provide opportunities for collaborative exploration, media analysis, and meaningful engagement with diverse media forms.Offering a media literacy framework that embodies the principles of the third space, this book will interest not only school librarians but also scholars, researchers and graduate students of library studies, education studies, media literacy and education.
