Read chapter 2 “why are media important” from our textbook, Media Literacy in Actionby Renee Hobbs. As you read, consider the following questions, and respond in the spaces provided before class on the due date.
Your answers do not have to be perfectly polished, but clarity and logical reasoning is important. I want you to use this space to really start to wrestle with some of the ideas we’ll be discussing in class, so make sure your answer to each question is at least 100 words (word count is automatically calculated under each question).
Then answer the 2 questions below using the instructions above.
1) In our textbook, Hobbs (2021) says that “Media are deeply intertwined with life, and for an increasing number of us, we live in media, rather than with media” (p. 35).
What do you think she meant by that? Do you think you live “in” or “with” media, and why?
2) What part of this chapter most surprised you and why (a fact you didn’t know, a perspective you’d never considered, or maybe an idea that you’d never heard)?
