We in the world of media literacy

Media literacy is the ability to apply critical thinking skills to messages, signs and symbols transmitted through mass media, which helps us to orient ourselves correctly in modern life, develops critical and creative thinking. We live in a world saturated with all kinds of media, newspapers, radio, television, internet. Media literacy allows us to understand and evaluate all the media messages we encounter every day, enabling us to make better choices about what we choose to read, watch, and listen to. It also helps us become smarter and more discerning members of society. Media literacy is considered as the 21st century necessary ability. Despite this, a lot of people dismiss the media as harmless entertainment and claim that they are unaffected by its messages. However, people are influenced by the media messages they consume. Media literacy interventions and education help children and young adults understand the impact of media and give them the knowledge and tools to reduce its impact. A media-literate person already knows how and where to find, filter, create, and distribute relevant information.
