Media Think offers media literacy courses, training and presentations to groups. Our programs use a collaborative approach and address a range of topics, including: media violence, body image, health, news reporting, over-consumption and the environment, globalization, corporate influence, stereotyping, sexuality, brain development, addiction, and creativity.
Media Think serves as a resource for organizations and individuals with specific interests in media literacy. We provide reference material, online resources, contacts, handouts and other information.
Media Think acts as a catalyst for media change. By making the public more media literate and supporting media reform, we challenge media professionals to "raise the bar” - to be responsible and accountable for what they produce and disseminate.
We are exploring strategies and funding to develop these initiatives:
Discussion Course for Parents: The Discussion Course involves groups of 8-12 people meeting once a week for several weeks to discuss carefully chosen course-book readings. The meetings are peer-facilitated. Our first Discussion Course, “Media-Mindful Parenting,” is under development and is our primary fundraising goal. The Course will be piloted in fall of 2010.
