]]> Comment on Media Literacy Seminar (19th February 2008) by clynch http://medialiteracyni.wordpress.com/2008/02/20/media-literacy-seminar-19th-february-2008/#comment-4 clynch Tue, 11 Mar 2008 10:28:46 +0000 http://medialiteracyni.wordpress.com/?p=5#comment-4 I enjoyed the media literacy event in Blefast and I have looked with interest at the points made at the workshops which I was unfortunately unable to attend. With reference to people's willingness to invest time in learning new skills and the point that we should be addressing the essential skills needs of individuals before digital inclusion , can I draw colleagues' attention to a very significant rection from ordinary people here to a resource that has been developed using web 2 to help parents with their children's maths homework. This extensive resource requires the technical ability to use a mouse and fully utilises all the benefits that web2 brings in that it is visual, non text driven and offers users a compelling experience. The site is cuurently getting 80,000 hits per month which to me is a clear indication that if the content is good then people will take the time to access it. It is also an example of a resource which demonstrates that media literacy and essential skills do not need to be mutually exclusive as not only does it help parents with their children's maths, it can also help them with their own. Take a look and see what I mean www.mallni.com/homeworkrules I would welcome any comments Colette I enjoyed the media literacy event in Blefast and I have looked with interest at the points made at the workshops which I was unfortunately unable to attend.
