Students will develop critical awareness of how media framing and technology influence their decision-making processes. Through analysis of differently framed news articles and group discussions, they will learn to identify media influence techniques and develop strategies for more objective information evaluation. These skills will help students become more discerning consumers of digital media and make more informed decisions in an increasingly technology-driven world.
