In a brief essay, explain James Potter’s four major dimensions of media literacy and how people with higher levels of media literacy differ from those of lower media literacy.
What will be an ideal response?
Students should name and define the four dimensions: cognitive, emotional, aesthetic, and moral. People with higher levels of media literacy have higher levels of control of their view of the world and can decide what media messages mean. People with lower levels of media literacy may have exaggerated fears of societal problems. They may assume that the media have large, obvious, and generally negative effects on other people but few effects on themselves. They tend to blame the media for complex social problems.
