Abstract

By considering some of the limits of the media literacy movement to date, such as lack of full implementation at colleges and universities and the virtual absence of awareness of media literacy and its concepts among the general population, this chapter provides an overview of the potential themes of liberation and emancipation as they relate to media literacy in higher education environments, and explores the pathways of liberation and education pedagogy by reframing the approach to teaching and learning in the context of critical education, the end of oppression and ultimately increased social justice. The exploration of the intersection of themes of liberation and media literacy, community education and reality pedagogy each play an important role in examining the ways that dominant narratives have factored into the lack of full absorption of media literacy today. This literary analysis seeks to provide suggestions for a pathway forward from the existing quandary.
