Exploring Critical Media Literacy and Making Memes

This hands-on workshop explores our relationships with media, technology, and popular culture by critically questioning media and creating our own alternative messages. By critically reading and writing with images, sounds, multimedia, and print, we enhance our critical thinking skills and embrace our potential as active global citizens. For two hours, we will use the critical media literacy framework to explore examples and engage in activities before creating our own memes that address our interests and concerns. Join Dr. Jeff Share, award-winning photojournalist and educator, UCLA senior lecturer, and author of numerous articles and books on critical media literacy.


Due to the interactive nature of this workshop, it is not recommended for ages 13 or below.
