Media Education: An International Unstoppable Phenomenon

October 20, 2011, Filed Under: Media & Information Literacy, Media Education Policy, Resources, Youth Media

Language: English

All articles in the journal are in English and Spanish; articles, authors and topics with a decidedly international and Latin American outlook; the journal is now in its 18th year and has published 1447 articles of research, experiences, reflections and proposals; the journal appears in 186 international data bases, journal impact assessment platforms, selected directories, specialized portals and hemerographic catalogues.

Despite the fact that media education scarcely appears reflected in school curricula all over the world, it
is becoming more necessary in our societies. As Vallet stated decades ago, communication is the air we
breathe; and it is therefore essential to train and educate the new generations to understand the new
languages and its new active and recreational learning processes, codes and discourses to be implemented by
the educative authorities in each country.

Media education should be also approached from other perspectives. The role of families as main educators
and the media itself have a decisive edu-communicative influence on the children, as well as
civil society and the citizenship in democratic societies. The citizenship should take part in associations
and organizations with the aim to build a responsible and critic society in which the power of the media
is increasingly pervasive.
