OCTOBER CHAT QUESTIONS: #MediaLitWk with MediaSmarts
MEDIA LITERACY WEEK THEMES: USE, UNDERSTAND, ENGAGE, VERIFY
- What are examples of how media-making apps and tools can be used to create positive experiences or content?
- How does digital media influence our perceptions, beliefs, and feelings about the world around us?
- How is AI making it even harder to know what is real and fake online? What are strategies we can use to detect AI?
- Is media becoming more accessible to all? In what ways? Why is this important?
- In what ways have you seen digital media evolve over past couple of years? Has it changed the way you engage with media?
*The same questions will be used for the Slow Chat all month long. We recommend classes spend time answering the questions ahead of time so time during the chat can be spent liking tweets, retweeting, quoting tweets in reply, and collaborating with others.
