These days, teenagers are influenced (影响) by the media. Many of them spend hundreds of hours on TV. That’s more time than they spend with teachers at school.
However, some studies show a serious problem: Today’s teenagers lack media literacy(缺乏媒体素养). In other words, they have difficulty thinking about the information they see. One study from a middle school shows that more than 70 percent of them couldn’t tell the difference between real news and stories someone made up.
Kevin John teaches a class called Media Effects. He tries to help his students learn media literacy. He gives an example that shows why media literacy is important. In the example, two news stations report a snowstorm. One is about the terrible road conditions(路况). The other is about kids playing in the snow.
“With a news story, news stations tell you what they feel are the important details (细节). These are up to the news director(主任) to decide.” said John. “A person with media literacy would know that each story is about one side at this time. There is more going on.”
Some scientists think the school is the best place to teach media literacy. Others believe everyone — from parents to reporters — should help teenagers learn the skills.
As for the best time to start learning media literacy, many scientists think students should begin at the age of 12. But others think the students should learn even earlier. “Old habits die hard. It’s never too early to start learning media literacy,” John said.
