"By providing numerous examples, tools, and strategies, Media Literacy Education invites us to understand, critique, and create media. Renee Hobbs builds on theories of adolescent learning as well as current research in media studies to provide a clear framework for integrating media literacy across the curriculum. We have been told that we are supposed to engage our 21st-Century students. Hobbs continues to show us how."

"Renee Hobbs makes a powerful case for media education as a touchstone for all areas of the curriculum. Even better, Media Literacy Education provides the tools for fostering media-literate learners—a must in the 21st century."

Review 8

"In her new book Media Literacy Education, Renee Hobbs demonstrates that using digital media in the classroom can support the development of print literacy skills, as well as entertain and engage. This book links traditional skills such as authentic inquiry and the use of critical questions to students’ pop culture, bringing relevance to the learning experience. In doing so, it empowers both teachers and students to make literacy experiences more relevant to students’ interests, everyday life, and important current and cultural experiences."
