Hey, homeschoolers! I think media literacy is a course we should consider including in our high school curriculum plan. When I learned that friend Nate Noorlander was teaching a class on it, I asked him to rejoin me on the podcast to discuss it. Nate gave me a new perspective that I hope blesses you as it did me.

Takeaways

    • Media literacy is an important skill for high school students to navigate the internet safely and critically evaluate information.
    • Determining source reliability, bias, and perspective is crucial in media literacy.
    • Epistemological humility, the willingness to doubt oneself and be open to different perspectives, is a valuable skill in media literacy.
    • Finding accurate information in the age of social media and the 24-hour news cycle can be challenging.
    • Having conversations about media literacy with children is important, and parents can take media literacy courses alongside their children.
    • The Nomadic Professor offers courses on media literacy, American history, free speech, and world history.
