    Hello everyone, My name is Jamie. I find it difficult to deal with media literacy and I am eager to take this quick study course. I feel that my current methods of teaching media literacy focus on negativity. I restrict the kinds of sources my students can use, and this feels uncomfortable. I allow .org sources but not .com sources. I allow only sources with the name of the author present in the source. I ask them to look at sources for “specialists” rather than for novices. But I think these restrictions frustrate my students. I hope to learn more empowering strategies.
