TV shows📺, text messages📠, social media⌚️, advertising, video games🕹 and online video 🎥are all considered media.

Social media literacy is looking specifically at platforms such as Facebook 🔵 or Twitter 🐤and learning how to critically analyse the content published here from a technical, cognitive, and emotional angle. 🔊
The technical 📢aspects centre on being aware of how the platform works – who can post what content, how it can be interacted with, 🔻and the underlying algorithms that present certain users’ content to you.🔸

Media literacy helps you analyze the infinite amount of information into a form of communication. There are two types of media literacy. 
The first one is traditional or “old- fashioned”. 
The second one is digital. As you may already guessed, it is everything connected to the digital world.

Media literacy is the ability to apply critical thinking skills to the media we engage. Media literacy allows users to analyze media messages to see propaganda, censorship, or one-sidedness in news and special programs and understand the structural elements that affect the information. For example, who is the media owner, and what is their funding model.

Why is it important?
Nowadays, fake news and disinformation has become widespread in the internet age, so it’s important to be able to differentiate between fake news and real news. The media we consume shapes our opinions on many different important topics – including politics, healthcare, and current events.
The last thing we want is to base such important opinions on lies and misinformation. Platforms such as Instagram and Facebook allow rapid sharing of information, which gives news a chance to spread quickly, often making the fake news seem believable.
