Description

In so called the “post-truth” world, the media literacy pedagogy is confronting so many challenges such as “fake news” and hate speeches on social media. And, we need to explore how we can adapt the concepts of media literacy to the new digital world. Therefore, this article examines two aspects of the concepts of media literacy. First, the Eight key concepts of media literacy which developed in Ontario, Canada by the Association for Media Literacy had a great influence on the development of the Five core concepts of media literacy and the Five key questions which the Center for Media Literacy built in the USA.

Second, new digital technology and social media including the phenomena of “fake news” reinvigorate the concepts of media literacy. Social media continue to expand on the wave of globalization, and it is expanding “fake news” worldwide. Inevitably, Media literacy pedagogy and concepts expand globally and make relationships with other literacies such as the Information Literacy and the News Literacy. There is the necessity of adopting an global vision on such a Media Literacy education movements and theories.
