Hey Jill, Sorry it has taken me a while to leave you feedback but I was re-reading your article and it looks great. I read in your sandbox more information that you had too that described what "media" is. I was thinking maybe you could make the first "media" in your article a link to the media page in case readers want to look at exactly who the "media" is/are. Other than that, you have a lot of great information. You list benefits of media literacy throughout the article, intertwined with other information. Maybe you could have a whole section dedicated to just the benefits of media literacy? Just a thought. Eewalsh (talk) 01:47, 18 April 2012 (UTC)Eewalsh

Hi Jill, just going through your article and noticed a missing letter but I added it in. I was thinking, it might be beneficial to link some articles to words in your article. For example, I had to look up a few words like "paradigmatic" and "syntagmatic". Eewalsh (talk) 13:55, 17 April 2012 (UTC)Eewalsh

Hey Jill, was just re-reading your article again and have some more feedback! I like how you distinguished between media education and educational technology & media because I think that could be a common misconception among readers. I think you have good links to uncommon terms, like neoliberalism, and also good links for supporting evidence or other references. You show the importance of media literacy education by explaining what it provides, and can contribute "to an expanded conceptualization of literacy, treating mass media" etc. and also how you covered how media education can be a way to protect children and help them make good choices regarding media consumption habits and patterns of usage. I think that it especially important in society today considering cyberbullying and helps to keep people safe. You have done a good job covering so many aspects of this topic thoroughly and I learned a lot just from reading your article. I also noticed in the last sentence of the section, "media literacy education may provide a type of protection to children and young by helping them make good choices..." I wasn't sure if there was supposed to be another word after 'young'... Just checking - Really good work! Jillgeib (talk) 22:46, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

Hey! You have clearly done a lot of research, and the concept of media literacy/education is clearly explained throughout the section. I think the links in your article are also helpful to the reader and back up your research Jillgeib (talk) 13:54, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

Hey Jill, Your article looks great! There is a ton of information that explains media literacy. I didn't know exactly what it was until I read the article and you have a bunch of information that explains it well. I didn't see any grammar mistakes or redundancy except the second sentence of "Concepts of Media Education" sounds a little bit too much like the first sentence of the paragraph right before it, in the last section. I don't think you should delete either sentence but maybe there's a way one could be re-phrased. Good work, keep it up! Eewalsh (talk) 13:45, 17 April 2012 (UTC)Eewalsh

Jill, it looks like you are figuring it all out, keep it up! If you have questions along the way feel free to ask me for help. Eff Gjeni (talk) 05:36, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

Topics
Looks like you've got a good start on your topics. I would suggest leaning towards the first two, as those might provide better avenues to narrow down a topic (since the third is a book). Maybe if you added some notes on where you'd like to go with your research, it might better help lay out your direction? Also, you do not need all the http:// stuff for Wikipedia links. Just simply use double brackets like wikipediarticlenamehere rather than the entire link. Debaser42 (talk) 18:50, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

Article
Hello - your additions on the article look good. I suggest you leave a note on the talk page (click "new section" and then title it something like "class project") telling people what you're doing and paste in the banner in the talk page (up at the top). If you get any snarky replies please leave me a message and the ambassador. Your work looks good, but you might want to divide it up into subsections soon, as the section is getting a bit long.

I really liked what you had to say! I really like how you incorporated different countries into your focus! It's very interesting how other parts of the world established and develop media education and literacy. It shows that you have an in-depth and detailed knowledge of the information and it shows. You must have spent a great deal of time researching and it looks awesome! I wikified your article a bit but unfortunately I hadn't had much time to really go through and get them all but it's a start, however I will continue to look at your article more and add references where I see necessary. Good luck with the rest of your article and I look forward to seeing the finished product! (Snarkyr2unit91 (talk) 10:12, 20 April 2012 (UTC))
