Media Literacy: Integration or Segregation
We are a group of students (Mexican, Spanish and Portuguese) from University of Huelva, studying a Master degree on Intercultural Education.
Therefore we propose this topic for discussion due to the implications that the "need" of Media Literacy is "required" nowadays for the development of any kind of task/work/study on a daily basis.

- Media Literacy: Integration or Segregation

Hello! I´m Leticia, from Huelva. This is my opinion about this topic:
El término "Literacy" implica cultura, capacidad crÃtica y creatividad. No es una alfabetización partiendo de cero, sino que se asienta sobre una base de conocimiento. Estas cualidades pueden suponer un motivo de segregación para aquellas personas que carezcan de estos conocimientos mÃnimos, que quedan excluidas de la sociedad de la información.
No obstante, podemos eliminar esta barrera segregadora si conseguimos que todas las personas comprendan cómo funcionan los diversos medios, tal y como afirma Viviane Reding. En este sentido, la Comisión Europea promueve la alfabetización mediática para prevenir y reducir el riesgo de exclusión de la vida de la comunidad.
La importancia de los medios de comunicación radica, entre otros aspectos, en el uso que hacemos de ellos: entretenimiento, acceso a la cultura, diálogo intercultural,... De esta forma, caen en la dualidad de ser una forma de integración en la sociedad para quienes tienen un cierto dominio de los mismos, a la vez que excluyen a los sectores menos alfabetizados, cerrándoles la puerta a la cultura de la información y la comunicación actual.
Abstract:
âLiteracyâ implies culture, critical capacity and creativity. These qualities can segregate persons who doesn´t have this knowledge of the society of information.
Nevertheless, if people understand the functioning of mass media, we will eliminate this barrier, as Viviane Reding says. This way, European Commission promotes Media Literacy to anticipate and reduce the risk of exclusion of the community.
Mass media are important because we use them to entertain, accede to the culture, talk,⦠This way, mass media are a form of integration in the society, but a form of exclusion to the less alphabetized sectors.

In my opinion, this question about media literacy is very relevant because it focus one of the more dangerous aspects of the ICTâs nowadays: the digital gap, which leaves apart the ones who do not have access to them or do not have the literacy needed to understand and manage their codes.
It seems obvious that the media are a very useful tool to join people breaking the borders of space, time and, why not, cultures. But, on the other hand, the absence of media literacy can stablish a new border between the people who suffered it and the literacy ones segregating them.
This is a phenomenon that is present inside the developed societies but where is more critical is in the, so called, third world or underdeveloped societies. Just a fact: in the World Summit of the UN for the Information Society held in Geneve in 2003 the African countries claimed for a special fund to reduce the gap between the 70% of users of Internet citizens of the richest nations in the world with only a 16% percent of the total amount of world population and the other 84% of population. Do you think they have found answer to their claim?
Sometimes, we see the problem of segregation only as a financial problem: the poorest do not have access to media because of their poverty but, today, in many countries there are projects which use radio stations, Internet, and other media to improve the communities in a wide range or factors: health, agriculture, education, culture, ... because is a very ecomical way of promoting their development. In all this cases, media literacy is a key matter and, at the same time, a challenge.

I would like to express my point of view concerning the vulnerable populations and the access to media, in order to gain and develop literacy on it.
Nowadays there's not a democratic access to media contents.
Several groups (seniors, people with mental illness, etc.) are not aware of this kind of contents , and the three characteristics of Media Literacy (culture, criativity and critic) need to be developed by using this contents.
I believe that this approach will create even greater gaps between some already "vulnerable groups". The need to gain Media Literacy in order to be able to keep up with the general development will create "new guetos" within the people that are not that qualified and literate to use the characteristics.
In order to "Make effective use of media in the exercise of their democratic rights and civis responsabilities" (in the "The European Charter for Media Literacy") there exists the need to approach the already "vulnerable groups", because the race to gain and develope Media Literacy, to those groups, is already unfair at start point.

Differences between media literate individuals.
Even individuals that are "literate" do not have the total knowledge/competences/skills necessary to correctly produce contents.
Therefore in my opinion even inside of the groups that have some "Media Literacy" there are differences between the users and "viewers" or "observers".
I believe that the Swedish and German Concept of Media Literacy it is necessary and fulcral to evaluate, and a good starting point, the Media Literacy within the European Populations, because the competences are necessary to develope the criativity and a well based critic upon any topic. Also a good culture upon the topic is necessary to produce a correct new content.

La alfabetización digital es una dimensión muy importante en nuestros dÃas, y muy especialmente si la miramos desde un punto de vista educativo. En la actualidad, la importancia de la alfabetización digital viene dada desde una doble perspectiva. En primer lugar, los ciudadanos deben introducirse en el mundo de la literacia, integrándose en una sociedad digital, por lo que necesitan expresa y especÃficamente manejarse en el mundo de las nuevas tecnologÃas para poder desarrollar competencias tales que puedan desenvolverse en la sociedad. En segundo lugar, las escuelas están evolucionando para adaptarse a esta nueva tipologÃa de sociedad digital, por lo que incorpora en sus aulas nuevas tecnologÃas de la información y comunicación, conviertiéndose no solo en contenidos que hay que aprender, sino en una metodologÃa para aprender otros contenidos.
De este modo, si recapitulamos, vemos que las neuvas tecnologáis en los centros educativos se convierten en contenidos a estudiar, ya que son herramientas que los futuros ciudadanos usaran en la sociedad; pero además se convierten en las herramientas, en los recursos que los docentes deben emplear para transmitir los contenidos, tarea que tradicionalmente se hacÃa con otra metodologÃa y otros recursos.
AsÃ, tanto docentes como alumnos necesitan este control de los medios. La literacÃa es por tanto una realidad social actual necesaria. Igualmente, los padres, si quieren ayudar a sus hijos, deben aprender también, deben manejarse con la literacÃa.
Con esta introducción mi objetivo era demostrar el enorme potencial segregador de la literacÃa. En otro tiempo, era analfabeto el que no sabÃa leer ni escribir. Hoy en dÃa es analfabeto aquel que no se maneja con las TIC. Debemos aprovechar este detalle para evitar la discriminación, haciendo que todo el mundo se maneje mÃnimamente en el mundo de la literacÃa, para que pueda tener cultura, capacidad crÃtica y creatividad, elementos que componene la propia literacÃa, como nos recordaba un compañero en su comentario.
Abstract:
The digital literacy is a important new dimension in our days, and specially important if I look it from the eyes of education. Actually, I would see two important point. First, citizens must enter the world of digital society, so they need to handle new technologies to develop skills to function in society. Secondly, schools evolve to adapt to this new digital society, so it incorporates new technologies into their classroom information and communication becomes not only content to be learned, but a methodology for learning other content.
We see new technologies in schools become content to be studied, as are tools that future citizens will use in society, but also become the tools that teachers should use to convey the contents, a task traditionally had a different methodology and other resources.
Thus, both teachers and students need this control of the media. The phenomenon of literacy is therefore a necessary current social reality. Also, if parents want to help their children must learn too, must be handled with the literacies.
With this introduction I intended to show the enormous potential of segregating Literacies.Formerly, he was an illiterate who could neither read nor write. Today is illiterate who is not handled with ICT. We must use this detail to avoid discrimination, making the whole world is handled minimally in the world of Literacies, so you can have culture, critical and creative elements itself componene Literacies, as a colleague reminded us in his commentary .

Statistics provided by the Media Literacy Profile for Europe state that TV programming remain the primary source of media consumption (3 times more than internet). This is clearly visible if we analyze the number of hours our students spend daily in front of the TV (most of my students send 6 to 8 hours daily!). If we take into consideration that the elderly send most of the day in front of the TV and middle aged working adults spend the remainder of their day, after coming home from work, watching the news, soap operas and football, it is understandable the result of the statistics. But never the less, the internet is growing at a fast rate, the use of e-mails, Messenger, on-line communities such as Facebook, Hi5, have attracted all kinds of cyber users, and are now an essential part of everyday life. The new phenomenon of âMultitaskingâ has added many more hours of media consumption to the lives of many teenagers who listen to music, watch TV, send text messages and chat with their friends through Messenger, all this while supposedly doing their homework! But this fact does not necessarily mean the quality of their media literacy is good! If you ask theses teenagers to research quality information from the internet you will in most cases de disappointed with the results.
Regarding the above topic â' Integration or segregation, media literacy can bring on segregation due to the know-how involved that many do not posses. Even in a âliterateâ community such as educators, it is visible (for example) in the more elderly, the need to adapt to the ever changing media world can be sometimes stressful and challenging, leading to the dependency on younger colleagues for help. Another reason that can lead to segregation stated by Viviane Reding is the fact that many people don´t even have access to such media due to the most diverse reasons.
Obtaining media literacy is of utmost importance in order to integrate disfavored populations. I agree with Javier when he refers to segregation due to a financial problem, this is true in many cases, but it is not the only reason.

"Sometimes, we see the problem of segregation only as a financial problem: the poorest do not have access to media because of their poverty but, today, in many countries there are projects which use radio stations, Internet..." (quoted from Javier's opinion).
Well, i must say that segregation not only shows itself as a financial issue, but as well as a poverty of knowledge. The projects are aiming to a target that it is poor on a financial sector by, maybe, also poor on a knowledge sector. Therefore the projects need to be less "initiatives" and be more "permanent", because the use and manage of equipment and tools will provide literacy to those groups.

Letâs set the example about past generations, where their media literacy was pretty much about knowing how to use the videocassette, stereo, radio and TV. Nowadays new and more complex programs, softwares and digital devices are being developed, and it takes for the regular users a constant and endless learning.
Sometimes the knowledge of recent deviceâs functioning, makes easier the understanding of the newest and more complex devices, therefore people who doesnât even know the functioning of the basic devices will have a longer path to walk for the understanding of newer programs, softwares, devices and technology in general.
The endless race of new technology development will continue and just those who go along with it, will be the ones who get the real benefits, the ones who stay behind will find a difficult barrier to break, being in situations where the knowledge of technology will be practically compulsory (like in schools, job positions and even to socialize).

Realmente, ya que nos introducimos en el mundo de la literacia, tenemos que adaptar también los términos. Si hablamos de segregación o integración, tenemos que prestar atención a qué tipo de segregación e integración hablamos.
De este modo, debido al tiempo que los jóvenes dedican a las TIC, como Interner, MSN, redes sociales como Facebook, Tuenti, HI5, etc. podemos decir que se propaga la segregación fÃsica, pero realmente los chicos entre ellos se integran a través de la red, pues se socializan, solo que no están juntos fÃsicamente.
Otro tema es que dediquen todo su tiempo de forma individual y no se relacionen con nadie. Tenemos que fomentar en los jóvenes que se relacionen como quieran, pero que no todo es Internet. Deben usarla crÃticamente, con juicio.
Abstract:
Really, in the team of literacy, we have to searching other significaties for the Works. If I talk of segregation or integration, we will take attention of what kind of segregation or integration we talk.
This way, because the time teenagers spend in thet TIC, social networks, as msn, Facebook, Tuenti, HI5⦠we can say that it causes physical segregation, but the teenagers arenât segregates virtually, because they are integrated in the networks.
Another issue is that those teenagers spend all their time individually and they donât communicate whit his friends. We, the educationâs professionals should encourage in the teenagers people that Internet isnât everything in the life, they should relate both physically and vitually. But not everything is online. They shloud use it critically, with trial.

When we approach the media literacy concept, we can think on various kinds of media, such as printed press, TV, Radio, film, recorded music, Internet (if we can consider it as a media!) , and others.
However, the fact is, the latest concerns about this concept have only arisen with the massive utilization of Internet. And this point has some strong arguments, one of those being the fact that Internet itself can integrate almost all of the common media that have been referred. The rapid spread of faster and cheaper internet access has boosted internet use.
According to the EU charter, âMedia Literacy is about being able to access all mediaâ. What happens with the rise of the Internet is a complete new different way of accessing media. But this is talking about the present and the future.
So, is media literacy a present/future concept or something that exists for a long time?
Comments will be appreciated!

"Internet (if we can consider it as a media!)"(quoted from Hugo Martires)
I have to disagree with Hugo cause i believe that Internet it is, totally, a mass media. It broadcast information, in several ways, to great amounts of people. However, i believe, that the main problem relies in the correct use of Internet, and the tools that provides. This will bring the theme: The Media Literacy promotes, on one hand, integration through Internet and all the interactive tools, and segregation due to the lack of literacy on the use of the tools/Internet.

Partiendo de la premisa de que en la sociedad de hoy es muy dificil conseguir la capacidad de identificar, evaluar, y utilizar la informacion adecuadamente, es importante partir de una buena base para que esta informacion no se desvirtue.
Es por ello conveniente no segregar a los alumnos o alumnas que estan aprendiendo un determinado recurso en dos vertientes:
a) Alumnos/as que parten con conocimientos previos de aquellos utensilios que tienen que ver con las nuevas tecnologias.
b) Alumnos/as que desconocen por completo el manejo de estos recursos.
No olvidar que este ultimo caso esta en extincion, ya que en la actualidad los jovenes desde muy pequeños crecen con las nuevas tecnologias al lado.
¿Que pensais al respecto?
Abstract:
Starting from the premise that in today's society is very difficult to get the ability to identify, evaluate, and use appropriate information is important from a good basis for this information is not affected.
It is therefore desirable not to segregate students or students who are learning a particular application on two areas:
a) students who leave prior knowledge of those tools that deal with new technologies.
b) students who are completely unfamiliar with the management of these resources.
Do not forget that the latter case is extinct, as currently very young youth grow with new technologies at hand.
What do you think about it?

RICARDO: I do not understand what you do not agree.
Before agree or disagree with someone, we need to understand what they are saying.
When I post "if we can consider it as a media!", I do not take any opinion on the subject. So there's nothing to agree or not.
In fact, according to the EU commission
"Media literacy relates to all types of media, including television, cinema, video, websites, radio, video games and virtual communities"
in: http://europa.eu/rapid/pressReleasesAction.do?reference=IP/07/1970&format=HTML&aged=0&language=EN&guiLanguage=en
"Citizens need to have acquired the skills to access and use all the different media available to them: How is a TV programme produced? Which sources on the Internet are trustworthy?"

In order to understand the present, sometimes it helps to look at the past.
When the media first were introduced in the society, there were no significant concerns about how people were prepared to process them. The citizens approached the media as a tornado sweeps the land that it crossed, taking everything that it can with him. People were invited to process everything that our senses can capture through media, the same way. No one ever taught the citizens how they should assist the TV, listening a radio, or assist a movie in the theatre. Iâm not talking only about the technological aspects of the media, but the understanding of how and why media content is produced and the social evaluation of their contents.
When we were introduced to a book, we have been tough how to use it: first we need to learn how to read words, in order to put them together in the form of sentences, after that, we learn about page numbering and to the book âtimelineâ reading from the first page to the last page, and then we need to learn how to use references as the table of contents or the index to navigate through the book. Remember the first time you used a dictionary? It was probably with the help of the school teacher.
The interesting point is that for media there was no such a learning period. Maybe because itâs so simple that there is no need to learn, some could say! âNo one needs to learn to watch TV!â, âTo listen radio, I only need to turn it on and tune it to my favorite station!â
Well the fact is that long before the Internet media emergence, some investigators have warned about such importance of media education.
SANTOS (2003) states that âis essential that there be a media education combined with education for citizenship, for values, multiculturalism, for sexuality, consumption, converging towards achieving the general objectives of education - the overall development of personality and development of a democratic and pluralistic spirit â' forming free, responsible and critical citizens towards communication phenomenonâ

Estoy de acuerdo con lo comentado por Marisa y Luis Miguel sobre los conocimientos de los jóvenes en relación a los medios. Es cierto que la mayorÃa de los jóvenes de hoy en dÃa conocen los medios de comunicación, pero ¿están realmente alfabetizados?
Como ya comentó Ricardo más arriba, el uso de Internet para determinadas tareas facilita la integración de las personas (por ejemplo las redes sociales), pero el desconocimiento de otras herramientas nos convierte en segregados.
La solución a este problema radica en la educación. AsÃ, la escuela es el vehÃculo principal para pasar a la integración, pues en ella podemos y debemos aprender a ser usuarios competentes en esta sociedad de la información en la que nos encontramos inmersos.
Pero no sólo los jóvenes deben alfabetizarse, sino que los adultos también deben participar en este aprendizaje a través de una iniciación y formación permanente en el terreno tecnológico.
Abstract:
I agree with Marisa and Luis Miguel, because young people know mass media, but are they really literate?
Some uses of the Internet facilitate the integration, but the lack of other tools make us segregated.
The solution is education. In this way, school is the main vehicle for integrating into the information society.
But not only young people should be literate, but that adults should participate in this learning through an initiation and training in the technological field.

En la Recomendación de la Comisión de la UE de 20/08/2009 acerca de la cuestión que estamos tratando se decÃa: "La consulta pública realizada a finales de 2006 puso de manifiesto las diferencias en
las prácticas y los niveles de alfabetización mediática en Europa". Además, la Comisión considera la ilustración en los medios (término que prefiero al de alfabetización) un factor importante para ejercer la ciudadanÃa activa en la actual sociedad de la información. Por lo tanto el riesgo de segregación existe, incluso me atreverÃa a decir que dicha segregación ya se está produciendo. Y es que a pesar de que el 97% de los hogares tengan al menos un televisor, en el 95% de ellos exista una lÃnea telefónica y en el 49% tengan acceso a Internet, esto no garantiza que quienes viven en ellos sean capaces de comprender como producen sus contenidos y evaluarlos crÃticamente.
Si no queremos que en nuestra sociedad esta brecha se haga cada vez más y más grande debemos actuar inmediatamente. En este sentido considero muy positivas las iniciativas de la UE para afrontar este problema, especialmente el informe que la Comisión elevará en el año 2011 evaluando la cuestión de la "ilustración en los medios" en todos los estados miembros, lo que no me impide dudar del interés que algunos gobiernos puedan tener en promover la educación en los medios.
Finalmete, me gustarÃa recoger las palabras de Hugo y Ricardo cuando discuten acerca de si Internet es o no una forma de acceder a los medios o un medio de masas en sà mismo. Para mi la cuestión es que Internet es el desencadenate de todo este proceso de cambio, coincido en ello con Hugo, porque ofrece una nueva forma de acceder a la información con total libertad, sin controles de gobiernos o poderes de otro tipo, y esto debe seguir siendo asÃ, para lo que resulta decisivo fomentar el conocimiento y la participación activa de todos los ciudadanos en la red.

No estoy de acuerdo con la Coordinadora (¿de este foro?) cuando sostiene que el caso de los alumnos que desconocen por completo el uso de las nuevas tecnologÃas está en extinción. Puede que sea asà en el primer mundo, pese a que aún subsisten bolsas de pobreza en la grandes ciudadas donde hay niños que escapan a la escolarización y pasan su tiempo en las calles. Pero indudablemente esto no es asà en el tercer mundo dónde aún subsisten tasas de analfabetismo considerables. Según la ONU, más de un 15% de la población mundial es analfabeta, y entre sus Ocho Objetivos de Desarrollo para el Milenio se encuentra el de alcanzar la alfabetización del 100% de la población para el 2015. Y no me refiero a la alfabetización en los medios sino a algo tan simple como saber leer y escribir.
Me gustarÃa que las palabras de las conclusiones del Consejo de la UE de 27/11/2009 "In the promotion of media literacy it is crucial to recognise that the digital revolution has
brought about significant benefits and opportunities, enriching the lives of individuals, in
terms of their ability to communicate, learn and create, and transforming the organisation of
society and the economy." pudieran hacerse universales.
P.D.: Por favor, corrijan los problemas tipográficos derivados de la presencia de tildes en los textos.

When I post "if we can consider it as a media!", I do not take any opinion on the subject. So there's nothing to agree or not." quoted from hmartires
This is a matter of communication skills.
Of course there is something to agree or not. We can disagree upon opinions and statements, just like the on that was made up there.
I coment upon your statement cause i disagree with this setence: "if we can consider it as a media!";and i answer of course Internet is a Media (a mass media in fact) and i presented some arguments in the other coment.
The error, in my opinion, was at the sentence you produced: "if we can consider (Internet) it as a media!"

Therefore Internet it is, in fact, a media. Therefore we have to consider it a media, and as i said, a mass media, due to the characteristics of the Internet.

Según la Comisión de las Comunidades Europeas (Bruselas 20/12/2007) âUna mayor alfabetización mediática puede contribuir considerablemente a la realización de los objetivos fijados para la Unión Europea en el Consejo Europeo de Lisboa del año 2000.
La alfabetización mediática resulta especialmente importante para la creación de una economÃa del conocimiento más competitiva y participativa mediante un impulso de la competitividad de las TIC y los sectores mediáticos, para la realización de un espacio único europeo de la información y para fomentar la participación, mejores servicio públicos y mayor calidad de vidaâ
En mi opinión de la misma forma que existe una segregación social y espacial a niveles generales también se ha unido una segregación digital por lo que la participación por parte de todos no es posible.
Las personas que puedan acceder a una alfabetización digital deben aprovechar este aprendizaje (por ejemplo las personas mayores que están realizando cursos de acceso a Internet).
En el caso de las familias los padres deben tener una buena alfabetización digital y no segregarse del aprendizaje de sus hijos.
Volviendo al inicio, no podremos llegar a una alfabetización digital mundial por las diferencias tan grandes en el mundo entre unos lugares y otros.
Abstract
According to the Commission of the European Communities (Brussels 20/12/2007) "Increased media literacy can contribute significantly to achieving the objectives set for the European Union at the Lisbon European Council in 2000.
Media literacy is especially important for creating a knowledge economy more competitive and inclusive through boosting the competitiveness of ICT and media sectors for the realization of a single European information and to encourage participation, better public service and higher quality of life "
In my opinion the same way that there is a social and spatial segregation to general levels has also joined digital segregation as participation by all is not possible.
People who have access to digital literacy should exploit this learning (eg older people who are making Internet access courses).
For families the parents must have good computer literacy, and not segregate their children's learning.
Returning to home, we can not reach a global digital literacy for the large differences in the world from place to place.

De todos es sabido que la carta europea se basa en un estudio sobre pruebas y criterios para evaluar el nivel de alfabetizacion mediatica en todos los Estados miembros.
Ahora bien, pienso que esta evaluacion no es la misma en todos los paises, ya que las competencias tanto audiovisuales, digitales y todas aquellas que tengan que ver con el mundo de las nuevas tecnologias no tienen el mismo peso en paises de culturas diferentes.
Es por ello, que esta carta europea lo que trata es de que todos los profesionales dedicados a la vida de las nuevas tecnologias hagan un frente comun para lograr objetivos, competencias, etc. tambien comunes para toda europa con el fin de adaptarnos a la sociedad en la que vivimos hoy en dia.
Abstract:

But I think this assessment is not the same in all countries, since both visual skills, digital media and all those having to do with the world of new technologies do not have the same weight in countries of different cultures.
For this reason, this letter is what Europe is for all professionals dedicated to the life of the new technologies make a common front to achieve goals, skills, etc.. also common throughout Europe in order to adapt to the society in which we live today.

Media literacy concerns have been around for some time, but in the present time itâs extremely urgent to develop this skill in the citizens, because of the fast changes that the ICT have introduced in our lives. With the constant evolution of computers and Internet around the globe, soon all media will be integrated in digital format (TV with Internet is an example).
Though some have attempted to misrepresent my point of view, I strongly believe that Internet is a media, as stated in my previous posts. I believe Internet and computers will have a central role in media communication in the near future.

"En el caso de las familias los padres deben tener una buena alfabetización digital y no segregarse del aprendizaje de sus hijos." (MêJosé Caballero)
à muito importante que a alfabetização chegue a toda a famÃlia. Não se pode esperar que esta tarefa seja só da responsabilidade da escola. Os pais devem conhecer e compreender os desafios que os seus filhos terão de enfrentar para os poderem orientar na sociedade digital.
A utilização das tecnologias digitais começa cada vez mais cedo, muito antes dos jovens atingirem a maturidade. Por isso é necessário um acompanhamento constante por parte dos pais.

Hola a todos, me encanta veros por estos medios tan entusiasmados, perdonad que me exprese en español, es que el inglés no lo domino muy bien, lo sé leer pero no me defiendo mucho escribiéndolo.
La verdad que todo este tema de la PedagogÃa en los medios me resulta muy interesante ya que como expone VÃtor Reia en su artÃculo "Hacia una Alfabetización en medios: ejemplos en contextos de habla portuguesa, revista comunicar nº 28, la PedagogÃa en los medios debe ser un área disciplinar la cual debe ser estudiada e investigada como una materia propia, la cual redunde en la sociedad-red, llegando a configurar lo que él denomina una "ciudadanÃa multimediática", concepto éste muy ionteresante a tener en cuenta como perspectiva de formación en la sociedad.

Hola MArisa he cogido la cita que has colgado ya que esta cita de Maria Jose Caballero "En el caso de las familias los padres deben tener una buena alfabetizacion digital y no segregarse del aprendizaje de sus hijos." a mi entender también hace referencia de manera muy explÃcita a la brecha generacional que se abre con las generaciones futuras que nos van sucediendo, asà pongo de ejemplo, la llegada del reproductor de video o de dvd, me acuerdo que es muy tÃpico la imagen del niño (13 años en adelante) enseñando a sus padres a utilizar dichos "trastos" y el padre/madre preguntando al hijo cómo se enciende o cómo se pone para ver la peli dicho "aparato". Este ejemplo tan tÃpico lo podemos hacer extensible a la utilización de las NTICs en general y asà poder ver de forma práctica la NECESIDAD de Alfabetización en Medios, que tenemos no sólo los miembros que provenimos del ámbito docente si no también de la sociedad en general, alumnos, menores, padres, etc.

El concepto de âAlfabetización Digitalâ nace de la necesidad de manejar un ordenador o navegar por la red con una mÃnima soltura.
Las aulas han ido llenándose de ordenadores y de nuevos recursos tecnológicos. Pero lo importante es que el alumnado, cuente con una capacidad crÃtica, para poder dar buen uso de los medios que está a su disposición. Existe mucha información que procede de múltiples vÃas (internet, teléfono móvil, televisión, cine, videojuegos, etc.). Los jóvenes y los adultos tienen que ser capaces de discriminar y entender toda esa información, descodificando correctamente los mensajes que los medios transmiten. El concepto inicial se amplÃa mucho más, y ahora se habla de âalfabetización mediáticaâ.

Quoting Rivoltella (2006):
..Although today.s effort of investigators and work groups is to extend media education to the extra scholar reality, emphasizing the problem of how to take media education to familiar environment and informal groups, probably the school represents nowadays the biggest experienced field on the media education area..
That makes me think that maybe the Media Education, somehow, is mainly focused on the school field. What happens then with people who finished their studies, people who work or people who do not have access to school programs to learn about Media Education? Maybe because of their daily activities outside the educational field they are being segregated just because of the fact they are not going to school.

Certainly, we must learn, first, to use the media, and secondly, to understand their messages. We have to difference between knowledge and know-how.
Having lots of information, as happens to kids today, it means having knowledge. The hicos now can learn a lot about some things, but few others. And that's because learning independently, and learn only what interests them, so they have many gaps in knowledge, or "fragmented knowledge

Un ejemplo de interes son los resultados oficiales que refleja la Media Literacy en el Reino Unido, en una encuesta realizada, en la cual:
Internet lo usan en su casa el 48%, el 17% lo usan solos, el 86% lo usan para estudiar, y el 68 % para jugar.
El 57% de los encuestados usan Internet para escribir correos, y el sorprendente resultado de un 67% que cree en todo lo que se publica.
Podemos decir entonces que existe un nivel alto de literacia funcional, o sea, capacidades para obtener acceso a los contenidos, utilizando las tecnologÃas.

57% of respondents use the Internet to write e, and the surprising result that 67% believed in everything that is published.

Este aspecto es muy interesante e sigue de acuerdo com lo que dice Luis Miguel Romero sobre la diferenca de utilizar los media e comprender sus mesajes.
Hay una generación que ya sabe cómo trabajar con los medios de comunicación, pero no pueden descifrar sus mensajes. AsÃ, a pesar del conocimiento de los medios de comunicación e su utilizacion, la segragacion también puede existir, ja que muchos no entendem lo que está disponible en los medios.

Citizens must acquire knowledge that grant them access to different sources of information and how to use them in a critical, active and creative manner, in order to exercise their citizenship in today's information society.
No one can stay outside of this whirlwind. If the society doesnât provide means of integrate their citizens in the digital world (with education has referred before) the digital segregation will arise, and it will be another problem that the society will have in hands.
In order to compete for the same resources and access the same opportunities, all individuals must be integrated in this new society, there is no other way. This is called the eInclusion. (http://ec.europa.eu/information_society/eeurope/i2010/docs/studies/wp5_benchpol_e-inclusion.doc)

A iniciativa nas escolas primarias em Portugal dos âMagalhãesâ http://www.portatilmagalhaes.com/ é uma realidade, mas a iniciativa do governo vai além do ensino primário⦠nas escolas básicas e secundarias também se tem assistido a este Booom de portáteis através da e-escolas. Não so para alunos mas também para professores. http://www.min-edu.pt/np3/738.html
O facto de facilitar a maioria dos professores a terem um portátil, influencia os recursos que estes aplicam na preparacao e aplicacao das suas aulas e inevitavelmente a actualização de conhecimentos daqueles que não dominavam ferramentas digitais.
O facto da maioria dos alunos terem acesso a portáteis e internet de forma acessÃvel consoante as suas possibilidades monetárias também melhorou de certa forma a qualidade dos trabalhos realizados, mas levanta um novo problema⦠será que estes alunos alcançam a literacia digital âautodidaticamenteâ ou será necessário prever um ensino que de resposta a esta necessidade?

Hola de nuevo, me resulta de interés lo comentado por Jose Antonio Ruiz, ya que si bien es cierto que existe una "literacia Funcional", que por cierto Jose antonio me ha encantado ese termino que has utilizado, te lo copiare, un acceso por medios de las Ntics a los contenidos tanbién existe una educación con los medios llevando a cabo su uso, nos estamos actualizando, ahora mismo para acceder a este foro he tenido que ponerme con las tics y ello me lleva a crear conocimiento sobre ellas.
La verdad que todo lo comentado hasta ahora me resulta interesante y creo que más o menos todos vemos las capacidades y posibilidades de los medios asi como sus limitaciones. saludos Lucia Nuñez Sanchez.

Es obvio afirmar que estamos ante un cambio importante que se refleja en los documentos que aparecen en la Carta Eurpea.
Pero no todos esos cambios se van a producir a la ligera, esto conlleva un cambio tambien de mentalidad, de recursos, tecnologias, metodologia y un sin fin de aspectos que contribuiran a que tanto el profesorado como el alumnado se adapten a unas caracteristicas que seran comunes para todo el territorio europeo.
Un saludo.

The EU has launched a benchmarking framework, the i2010, to compare the development of the information society in the member states. The framework has some indicators and is carried out with survey and studies. The output will give us a picture about the state of information society in Europe. One of the studies provides a comparative analysis of different Digital Literacy initiatives within the EU25, Norway, and Iceland, and in selected countries such as India, Canada and the USA.
âThe study has focused on initiatives and policies targeted to disadvantaged groups not being able to take full advantage of the information society for different reasons such as geographical location and the socio-economic background.â

Maybe we have mainly focused in the negative aspects of media literacy (segregation) and it is important to realize about the many integrative options. We will have to think from what point we start thinking, to have this kind of orientation from the beginning, therefore starting to see in a different angle the positive aspects the media literacy has to offer (integration).
We have to understand that we will never get the entire integration of society in a certain aspect, if we have not been able to do that in this century with all the relative-slow-evolution of media, we will not do it in a short period of time that involves the fast â' new technological developments. So I would like to think about an integrative aspect: Media Literacy involves certain criteria to evaluate the level of literacy, so that will help to standardized school programs in Europe (mainly), therefore people who assist to this programs will have a common knowledge about this topic.

What history as proven is that the lack of education on using and interpreting media, has blocked individuals to achieve higher levels of literacy which has direct impact in economic growth (one of the main concerns of the EU), society, citizens freedom and personal quality of life.
It is however a social responsibility the integration of the citizens through media literacy.
In the Lisbon Strategy, the EU commission states that âICT can accelerate the pace of technical progress, modernization and structural adjustment of the economy and stimulate the competitiveness. The exercise of citizenship relates to the participation of all individuals in the society. Therefore all citizens should be ensured with the same access to ICT, providing digital literacy for everyone and facilitating the use of technology.â

Siguiendo en la linea de Marisa Mártires como comentamos que es muy importante que la alfabetización digital llegue a toda la familia para que los padres puedan comprender los intereses de sus hijos y ser una tarea más de los padres apoyar la alfabetización de sus hijos.
Muestro aquà una carta de una madre a una web del colegio, comentando nuestro tema a discutir:
"Como madre de hijos que estudian en escuelas he constatado el gran problema que surge con la relación de los jóvenes de hoy con su familia. Uno de ellos desgraciadamente es la gran brecha generacional que se esta dando, no sólo a nivel educacional, de edad, sino también de tecnologÃas. Hoy en dÃa el joven maneja mucha más estos temas que los padres, y por ser muchas veces la madre dueña de casa, ésta tiene nula participación en alfabetización digital. Es común el comentario de las madres que cuentan que no pueden ayudar a sus hijos con tareas de esta Ãndole, porque no entienden nada de ordenadores, aun teniendo una en casa. También se rompen lazos de comunicación porque los chicos viven la tecnologÃa de manera vibrante y no encuentran un punto de conexión con sus padres. Obvia decir que por su parte, los padres, tampoco entienden el porqué de esta pasión.
Hemos discutido el tema en la escuela de mi hija y pretendemos hacer un proyecto para poder dar cursos a las mamás, especialmente a aquellas que no tienen una vÃa para adquirir estos conocimientos y pienso que es hora ya de desarrollarnos en estas tecnologÃas. "
abstract
Following in the line of martyrs like Marisa said it is very important that digital literacy for the whole family comes for parents to understand the interests of their children and be a task of the parents support their children's literacy.
I show here a letter from a mother to a school website, commenting on our topic for discussion:
As a mother of children studying in schools have found the major problem that arises with regard to the youth of today with his family. One of them unfortunately is the great generational divide that is occurring not only educational level, age, but also technologies. Today the couple handles these issues much more than fathers, and because many times the mother a housewife, she has no participation in digital literacy. It's often said that they have mothers who can not help their children with such tasks, because they understand nothing of computers, while having a home. Also communication links are broken because the kids live in a vibrant technology and can not find a connection with parents. Needless to say that for their part, parents do not understand why this passion.
We discussed the issue in my daughter's school and we intend to do a project to give courses to the mothers, especially those who have no way to acquire this knowledge and I think it is time to develop these technologies.

Según las recomendaciones de la Carta Europea: http://ec.europa.eu/avpolicy/media_literacy/docs/recom/c_2009_6464_es.pdf
podemos decir tal y como se reconoce en un artÃculo sobre el estudio «Current trends and approaches to media
literacy in Europe», realizado por la Comisión en la segunda mitad de 2007, existen
algunos obstáculos para el desarrollo en materia de alfabetización mediática a escala
europea.
Entre estos obstáculos, destacan la falta de una visión común y de visibilidad
europea de iniciativas nacionales, regionales y locales; la carencia de redes europeas y
de coordinación entre las partes interesadas.
Por tanto, y como hemos venido hablando en este foro, falta un consenso conjunto entre todos los profesionales del ámbito digital y audiovisual.

En definitiva, hay que centrarse en la importancia de la literacia como medio para llegar a todos y todas en post de una cultura multialfabetica mas acorde con los terminos que nos facilita estos documentos.

I agree that this subject will be interesting to follow in the future and the EU Charter for Media Literacy will be remembered as one of the main starter points of this discussion.
I came across an interesting study that focuses on a more wide perspective of the media literacy, in this particularly case, the digital literacy. A recent study of the National Literacy Trust, has found that children who blog, text or use social networking websites have better writing skills than those who do not. A report on BBC (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/8392653.stm) states that Technology boosts literacy skills.
Can this mean that digital literacy itself can somehow promote the regular literacy, as the writing skills?
Well, this would be certainly a good subject to follow, as well.

Existe una necesidad evidente de abordar la albetizacion mediatica.Muchos son los investigadores que han estudiado el tema. En mi opinión un aspecto primordial es formar en capacidades crÃticas a los usuarios de las TIC. Si no conseguimos como profesionales de la educacion, que nuestro alumnado adquiera estas capacidades, nunca entenderan el verdadero sentido de los recursos tecnologicos.

Estoy deacuerdo con los que dice los compañeros, si es cierto que las TIC tiene un gran poder de integración, en concreto Internet, es un recurso que rompe fronteras. Mediante esta herramienta, podemos trabajar desde casa, comunicarnos con cualquier persona del mundo, conocer culturas, costumbres, aprender idiomas. Es un recuros que ofrece muchas alternativas, incluso algunos investigadores estudian la posibilidad de sustituir la escuela actual por una escuela virtual, esto aunque parezca una locura, hay paises que ya lo practican. ¿Pero que ocurre con los niños de la calle?¿ Niños que ni siquieran tienen la posibilidad de ir al colegio?. En este sentido si creo que exista segregación, no todo el mudo tiene las mismas posibilidades.

I agree with the fellow who says, if it is true that ICT has great power of integration, specifically in Internet, is a resource that breaks boundaries. Using this tool, we can work from home, communicating with anyone in the world, meet cultures, customs, language learning. It is a resource that offers many choices, including some researchers are studying the possibility of replacing the present school for a virtual school, though it sounds crazy, there are countries that already practice it. But what happens to children in the street? "Kids do not even have the chance to go to school?. In this sense if I think there is segregation, not everyone is equally likely mute.

Para acabar mi intervencion en este foro, resaltar la Carta Europea como medio de expansion de la literacia en Europa, no como segregacion del mundo digital, sino como una union digital y de la multialfabetizacion que llegara a tener en los años proximos una importacia considerable en post de una sociedad tecnologica.
Pero, ¿es logico que lleguemos a una integracion de la literacion media, sin antes haber realizado un muestreo de partida de la literacia en la actualidad?
Os dejo con esa incognita....

But is it logical that we reach a literacion integration of media, without first sampling performed starting from the phenomenon of literacy today?
I leave you with that incognita...
