Critical Media Project with Alison Trope and DJ Johnson

  • サマリー

  • This week we’re joined by USC Faculty colleagues Alison Trope, Clinical Professor of Communication, and DJ Johnson, Associate Professor of Practice, Cinematic Arts. Together they direct the Critical Media Project (CMP), a free media literacy web resource for educators and students (ages 8-21) that enhances young people’s critical thinking and empathy, and builds on their capacities to advocate for change around questions of identity. The website includes around 700 pieces of media and wraparound pedagogical resources that focus on seeing across difference, in order to surface questions that can then be addressed in the open. It can be used independently, and is also aligned with the Common Core for use in schools. Throughout this episode we’ll listen to media examples with Alison & DJ to discuss how CMP works and how it can be used.Alison and DJ begin by telling us about their own media backgrounds, and how they reconcile their own positionality in these issues of identity when teaching and bring that conversation into the classroom, so it can become a shared space of engagement for all. After digging into some of the areas of identity currently tackled by CMP, we discuss how students and educators have engaged with it, both by using the resources as well as creating their own media, and through their latest curricular project, the fully-online Critical Makers Lab.Here are some of the references from this episode, for those who want to dig a little deeper:Alison TropeDJ JohnsonCritical Media ProjectCritical Makers LabCMP DIY Activities:I am, but I'm not...Making ChangeMapping My World + CommunityIdentity CollageApplying the Common Core - Critical Media ProjectAlison & DJ’s childhood TV favorites:Wonder Woman (TV Series 1975–1979) - IMDbCharlie's Angels (TV Series 1976–1981) - IMDbCHiPs (TV Series 1977–1983) - IMDbBattle of the Planets (TV Series 1978–1980) - IMDbVideos we watched and discussed, as they appear with discussion questions on the CMP site:Zootopia - Press Conference SceneChimamanda Ngozi Adichie: The danger of a single story | TED TalkRise (dinner table)I'm Trans, But I'm NotShips at a DistanceAlso mentioned:educator, author, and media literacy advocate Renee HobbsW.E.B Du Bois’s 1890s infographics ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––Share your thoughts via Twitter with Henry, Colin and the How Do You Like It So Far? account!
