TAKING TIME TO PLAN FOR MEDIA
Ontario Curriculum Expectations - Media & Advertising
Let's explore the application of media, advertising and marketing to your upcoming classroom placements.
Time will now be given for your group to work on the LESSON PLAN for this task. Consider all the elements of an effective lesson plan as you create your presentation for the audience in the classroom. Consider all the 'text' and 'media' elements integrated into the message. How will students be actively engaged in learning about media literacy throughout your LESSON.
Review some resources available for use in your planning. Adapt and adjust these resources to suit your curriculum expectations.
