Multi-media literacy is an issue facing all students. This section explores the digital revolution of TV, radio, movies, video, music and the Internet and teaches how to effectively use each source of information for research. Critical thinking skills are stressed throughout, and a how-to research project shows how each information source can be “read” for best results. Topic for the project is “The Influence of African Americans on American Entertainment.” Kids will love the wacky, energetic illustrations!
