Teaching Media Fluency

 

Fluency: to have the ability to speak or write well. An example of speaking fluent would be knowing how to speak a foreign language. (French). “Media fluency is the interpretation of messages within all sorts of media and having the ability to communicate in multiple multimedia formats.” (Media Fluency-bulb Digital Portfolios) Media fluency discovers how using the internet creates multiple opportunities for people to learn and share information all over the world and with themselves possibly with a push of a button.  

Media fluency is an important issue. Its vision is to help learners build their reading skills. “Gamelet (Gamified, media-based training of reading fluency) funded by Erasmus+(2018-2021) aim is to develop a multilingual training program that helps to struggle and performing students improve their reading skills.” (https://doi.org/10,34190/GBL.19.121)  



Another interesting fact about Media Fluency pertaining to digital literacy is the more understanding of the process of media literacy the more things can be accomplished. Being literate. there is a possibility you could set up a shared document online but being more knowledgeable or fluent you possibly could self-select from a range of tools to achieve the same outcome or use other methods to communicate online with other people.

Surely, I am working towards this goal of becoming more knowledgeable about this technology world of possibilities. It is almost time to return to school and I am sure I will be able to apply what I have learned in my online classes. I desire to become more fluent in using technology.
