Answer 1

many different approaches to building media literacy skills are proliferating. But these different practices can be conceptualized along a continuum with four phases, as articulated by Elizabeth Thoman (l996):

1. Awareness of time and choice in media consumption.
This phase of media literacy involves gaining consciousness and sensitivity regarding the extent and magnitude of individuals' exposure to different kinds of media messages, from billboards to tee shirts, from newspapers and television to videogames and the internet. Activities often involve counting and measuring one's use of media, exploring different pleasures and satisfactions people receive from a range of media messages, and learning strategies for managing media use in the home.

2. Critical reading/viewing skills and media production activities. 
This phase of media literacy involves developing skills for analyzing and producing media messages, explicitly extending the traditional skills of literacy to include 'critical reading' and 'writing' for the mass media. Producing media messages has long been understood as one of the most valuable methods to gain insight on how messages are constructed.
