Citizenship Lesson Plans

Margie Said:

Could you please proofread my dissertation's abstract(you may reword the phrases)?

We Answered:

Teaching of media literacy in secondary education (14-18 years old) is as important as teaching of literacy in primary schools. To know the media and media messages, to understand the language of media and relationships better, and to be familiar with the message production processes, ground(?) and background of messages in context, one must be media literate. At the age of secondary education when adult personalities begin to be shaped and preparations for professional life are started, one's relationship with media and the practices learned from media become engrained. Practices of learning, acquiring information, acculturation and entertainment are made at this age. As youths, our assurances for the future should be educated and grown with loyalty, national interests and awareness of citizenship which is the cornerstone of democracy, to be ensured with teaching of media literacy. (I don't know what this last sentence means, so I can't edit it.)

The objective of this dissertation is to develop a scope and content framework for the media literacy curriculum for secondary education in Turkey. Lesson plans were examined of countries where a developed media literacy education program already exist,

The main headings of secondary education media literacy class are determined as follows:

Means of communication, especially each type of media
Media message genres like news, documentary and film
Most common concepts of media literacy education
Instructional methods of media literacy
Fundamental issues about pre-production and production stages of messages which affects the quality of information
Influence of messages received by individuals

These headings and subheadings were identified and individually analyzed.
A practically applicable model is proposed for students, parents and researchers, program developers and teachers, official decision makers who are responsible for organizing and implementing this education.

This model is proposed for the secondary educational level media literacy class.

Wesley Said:

What if Israel was created in Australia?

We Answered:

Reading this makes me look at the whole Palestinian/Israeli issue differently. I knew what happened, but I never really thought about the Palestinian side and how they would feel until now. Now I think about how I would feel if my country was invaded by the Jews. (not that they would be physically able to do it anyway)

Yes, of course this is made up, it would never happen in Australia, but now I feel angry towards the Jews because it did happen in Palestine, the UN, US...

What's the solution? Make Jews and original inhabitants live in harmony, with a single government and equal power

Clifford Said:

Could you please proofread my dissertation's abstract (Native speakers please)?

We Answered:

'requisite - equal to the- ( the 'likewise' doesn't fit there)
for professional life are- started- (following on aren't words we use together and they don't fit there)
entertainment -are made- ( are laid doesn't make sense there)
It would make sense if you said 'pattrens are laid' but Practices aren't laid, they're practiced, or done, or made.
'Youths' You'll have to say 'As youths, '
And I dont' know what you mean by 'trained and growth with loyalty'. Growth doesn't make sense there, it should be grown, but the whole phrase should be cut out. Or reword it.
Our national interests-
'which is THE cornerstone' 'democracy, (comma) Then you need to start a new paragraph. This is too hard to read as it has no paragraphs.

Betty Said:

What if Isreal was Created in Ireland?

We Answered:

Good Point! This might make things come clearer for westerners. How about if we give Texas to the Jews and let them expand their settlements until all Texans are extinguished? I'll check back to see the answers.

Margie Said:

Illegals in England given the right to be legal, What are your thoughts?

We Answered:

Hi,

I am not a citizen of UK, I am trying for HSMP, but making illegal immigrants as legal citizens is not good. Government should not consider this as money matter alone, this act will encourage more people to enter UK illegaly.

On the other side, government can encourage people who tries to enter uk legally (through workpermit/HSMP). They can give more money (through direct/indirect ways) to UK government than these illegal people.

Discuss It!
