In this episode, we're getting into all that you didn't learn in school about media literacy and critical thinking. Critical thinking skills are at the heart of media literacy – and there's a movement to make media literacy a requirement in schools across the country. Last year, Illinois became the first state to pass a law requiring it in all high schools.But what exactly is media literacy? How do you teach it? And if you didn't learn it in school, what do you need to know now? Want to support 1A? Give to your local public radio station and subscribe to this podcast. Have questions? Find us on Twitter @1A.
