My Validation

As you see on the graph the highest peaked occurred in the blue (level 1). That score almost reached 80%. The lowest peaked occurred also in the blue (level 1). This peak was at almost at 12% (11.86%). In regards to wither it is a bi modal or not. It looks like there is Bi modal in this graph. 

1. The Skewness is more positive than negative.

2. The Skewness is more concentrated on the the Distribution of C.

3. The data dispersion is done by having the scores mainly in the middle of the graph.

Media Literacy vs. Traditional Literacy

"Although some countries (notably Canada, England, and Australia) have made progress in integrating media literacy into the school curriculum, schools in the United States generally have lagged behind (Hobbs & Frost, 2003). U.S. students may learn something about evaluating sources in research paper assignments and learn to recognize propaganda in social studies, but that's often the extent of their media literacy instruction."

 The importance of this quote to me is the fact that it spoke about the fact that we supposedly learn different subjects, but in reality we don't learn anything. Are we really learning something if we just cram it into our heads? In everything we read or even things viewed, it has a bigger picture.  People in society wonder why the United States is behind. Maybe there is something I miss, that makes me very confused on why can't we be # 1 in education? Obviously traditional isn't working, in order to give students  the best education that there is possible. Media Literacy is something that makes the viewer dig deeper than what they see. What will it take for that to change in America? Hopefully we can do something soon about it !

The Picture I chose shows kids unveiling an tv, that shows the globe. Media Literacy is access to the world !

Seven Power Lens

"We know that 75 percent of American adolescents are online (U.S. Census,2002) and 85 percent of all Internet users expect to find key news information online (Horrigan and Rainie,2002). Yet “the adolescents of the

nineties are more isolated and more unsupervised than other generations” (Hersch, 1998). The tools of visual,

media, and information literacy must be taught in school because they will (or won’t) be used at home."

Debbie, Abilock. "A Seven Power-Lens on 21st Century Literacy." n. page. Print.

In this quote it states that the majority of adolescents in the world use the internet for their news. I know personally I do look on my phone at apps before I even go turn on my TV. Its so amazing how when I wake up I look on my phone. Why not make it accessible to students to look at even when they are in the classroom. For those students who aren't really into school, maybe this can be the difference maker. Maybe it can be now more interesting for kids! The Picture I choose shows kids using Apple products and they are having so much fun. Imagine if every kid classroom was like that!
