“Hi guys! Today, let’s talk about something super important in our tech-filled world: media and
information literacy. This is what helps us navigate the digital age. So, let’s dive in and find out why it’s
important and how it affects our everyday lives! “
[Scene Transition: Text on screen: “WHY IS IT IMPORTANT? “]
[Voiceover with visuals of people using phones, computers, and social media platforms.]
“Every day, we’re flooded with information—from social media posts to news articles and videos like this
one! But not everything we see online is true or reliable. That’s why media and information literacy are
important. It teaches us to think, check, and confirm information before we believe or share it."
[On- camera: holding a phone.]
“For example, you see a post saying your favorite celebrity is quitting showbiz. Do you believe it right
away? If you’re media literate, you’ll check reliable sources first. This skill helps us avoid falling for fake
news or scams.”
[Scene Transition: Text on screen: “REAL-LIFE USES”]
[Voiceover with visuals of students doing research and families using online tools.]
“Media literacy helps us make smart decisions, whether it’s for school projects, online shopping, or even
voting. It also helps us stay safe online. Knowing how to spot fake websites or phishing emails can save
us from getting hacked.”
[On-camera: speaking animatedly.]
“It also teaches us to be responsible online. It’s not just about what we read or watch—it’s also about
what we share. Remember, one post can make a big difference! “
[Scene Transition: Text on screen: “HOW CAN WE BE MEDIA AND INFORMATION LITERATE? “]
[Voiceover with visuals of people fact-checking, attending workshops, and talking about media.]
“Start by checking facts. Tools like Google Fact Check or Snopes can help. Always ask, ‘Is this information
from a trusted source? What’s their purpose? ’ And don’t forget to share what you learn with others.
Together, we can create a smarter online community.”
[Closing Scene: Uplifting music with text: “BE MEDIA LITERATE. BE SMART. BE RESPONSIBLE.”]
[On- camera: smiling confidently.]
“So there you have it! Media and information literacy isn’t just a skill; it’s a must-have in today’s digital
world. Let’s use it to make smarter choices and help others do the same. Thanks for watching, and don’t
forget to like, share, and stay informed! “
