Review

"This eclectic volume shifts the paradigm for thinking about learning environments from what teachers may want to know about media literacy to what teachers need to know to be media literacy educators. This rich collection of resources and perspectives embraces the empowering possibilities (and perilous pitfalls) of 21st century education. While some texts overemphasize the media in media literacy, this book refreshingly focuses on development of the literacy in media literacy." -- Vanessa Domine "Associate Professor and Department Chair, Department of Secondary and Special Education, Montclair State University, Montclair, New Jersey"
