Developing media and information literacy competencies: a case study in rural schools in Yunnan Province, China
ABSTRACT Applying a skills-based approach to media and information literacy (MIL), this study explores the MIL competencies of teachers in multi-ethnic schools in Yunnan Province, China. A focus group approach was used. Results showed: (1) teachers have limited access to media and information technologies; (2) teachers do not show much of an understanding of the principles and theories of media and information technology; (3) teachers lack basic knowledge and technology proficiency to evaluate and critically analyze media; (4) content creation is limited. MIL competencies are limited by a variety of cultural, structural, organizational, and technological constraints. It has suggested the government to be aware of the importance of MIL education and equip teachers and students with MIL competencies to enable them to co-construct independent life-long learning skills.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Applied Communication Research publishes original scholarship that addresses or challenges the relation between theory and practice in understanding communication in applied contexts. All theoretical and methodological approaches are welcome, as are all contextual areas. Original research studies should apply existing theory and research to practical solutions, problems, and practices should illuminate how embodied activities inform and reform existing theory or should contribute to theory development. Research articles should offer critical summaries of theory or research and demonstrate ways in which the critique can be used to explain, improve or understand communication practices or process in a specific context.
