A media literacy project on violence and conflict.
Abstract
A description of a short curriculum on the topic of media violence and interpersonal conflict is provided in relationship to a number of expressed goals. College students worked in groups to develop and present the curriculum to local sixth-grade classes, including discussion questions, role-playing, and a video production exercise. The results of two means of assessment are discussed, a comparison of pre- and post-program responses to a series of open-ended questions and analyses of a television program clip.
