Do not let corrupt things invade your mind. Good

Your mind is your most potent weapon. So
sharpen it and make sure it’s loaded at all times.
-Francis Kong
Media and Information Literacy, reckoned as an

ability that every person should possess, is directly
linked to the human rights to freedom of information,
expression, and education (Reineck & Lublinksi,
2015).MIL enhances the capacity of people to enjoy
their fundamental human rights, as expressed in
Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human
Rights, which states that, Everyone has the rights to
freedom of opinion and expression. This right
INTRODUCTION includes freedom to hold opinions without
interference and to seek, receive, and impart
information and ideas through any media and
TO MEDIA AND regardless of frontiers” (UNESCO).
To obtain a diverse range of competencies,

INFORMATION the cultivation of a media-and-information-literate
population is essential for the sustainable
development of society, requiring the individual
LITERACY person, community, and nation at large (UNESCO,

2013).Because Philippines is the top country
worldwide for the most time spent on the internet, it
is therefore necessary for media and information
literacy to be promoted and taught in school to help
students become wiser consumers of media as well
as producers of media.Thus, the following content
embodies essential knowledge that should allow
students to engage with media and information
channels in a meaningful manner.

Type of communication
(verbal/nonverbal)

EXPLAIN
Communication is the act or process of using words, sounds, signs, or behaviors
to express or exchange information or to express your ideas, thoughts, feelings,
etc., to someone else (http://www.merriam-webster.com). It is the exchange of
information and the expression of feeling that can result in understanding
(http://dictionary.cambridge.org).
Communication is the process of transmitting information and common understanding
from one person to another. In this unit, we discuss the communication process, the barriers to
communication, and the ways to improve communication effectiveness (Lunenburg,2010 p.1).
TWO TYPES OF COMMUNICATION
A. Verbal Communication
Verbal communication is the use of words to share information with other people. It therefore includes
both spoken and written communication. While we typically focus on speech while talking about verbal
communication, it’s important to remember that writing is also a form of verbal communication – writing
uses words, too!
What do you think is the difference between the following forms of communication?
Verbal communication is a powerful tool for communication but it is more powerful when paired with
listening and nonverbal communication.
B. Nonverbal Communication
Nonverbal communication refers to gestures, facial expressions, tone of voice, eye contact (or lack
thereof), body language, posture, and other ways people can communicate without using language.
Here are some types of nonverbal communication and the effects they can have on the success of your
communication:
• Facial expressions
Facial expressions—happy, sad, angry—help you convey your message. Be aware of
your facial expression when you talk and particularly when you listen, which is when it’s
easy to forget.
• Gestures: When you speak, a gesture can make your message stronger. Pointing out
something you want your listener to look at more closely is an example of nonverbal
communication that makes your message understood. Motioning warmly toward a co-
12
worker who deserves special recognition, making a fist to show frustration or anger, such
gestures help further engage your audience when you speak.
• Proximity: How close you are to your audience when you speak sends a nonverbal
message.
• Touch: Shaking an audience member’s hand, putting your hand on his shoulder: these
are nonverbal cues that can affect the success of your message. Touch communicates
affection, but it also communicates power.
• Eye contact: Making and maintaining eye contact with an audience when you’re verbally
communicating or listening communicates to the other party that you’re interested and
engaged in the conversation. Good eye contact often conveys the trait of honesty to the
other party.
• Appearance: Your clothing, hair, and jewelry are also a part of nonverbal communication.
ELABORATE
To understand better how communication works, here are some models as
discussed by communication scholar Denis Mcquail (2005) as cited by Sayuno
(2019).
1. TRANSMISSION MODELS describe communication as a one-way, linear
process. Here are some examples:
Harold Laswell’s Communication Model is relatively straightforward and tells that
communication originates from someone; then, the message flows through the channel,
may it be sound waves or light waves, and that someone on the other end receives the
message with a corresponding effect.
Bajcharya, S. (2018). Laswell’s communication model. https://www.businesstopia.net/communication/lasswell-

communication-model
Claude Shannon and Warren Weaver’s Communication Model

incorporates theconcept of noise, which is an interference with the message.
Businesstopia in Communication. (2018). Shannon and Weaver Model of Communication.

https://www.businesstopia.net/communication/shannon-and-weaver-model-communication
13
Bruce Westley and Malcolm Maclean’s Communication Model presents the

idea ofhaving a communicator who relays his or her account of a selection of events or
views/ voices in society instead of having a sender who merely relays messages.
Relievingdays. (2012). Maclean communication model.

https://relivingmbadays.wordpress.com/2012/09/14/westley-and-macleans-model/
2. RITUAL OR EXPRESSIVE MODEL is

an alternative way of understanding how
communication works. This model
presents the idea that communication
happens due to the need to share
understanding and emotions. An example
would be when you use certain
symbolisms or euphemisms to indirectly
refer to certain things, but you are sure
that your audience still understand what
you are trying to say. Desai, M. (2014). Transmission and Ritual.
https://www.slideshare.net/mirakdesai/presentatio
3. PUBLICITY MODEL explains that

communication involves audience as
spectators rather than participants or
information receivers. The most important
factor in this model is ATTTENTION since it is
the measure of how successful the
communication is. An example would be when
you tell about a potentially boring story in a
compelling and animated manner to keep your
friend interested. GCFLearnFree.org. (2019). Active Listening.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzsVh8YwZE
14
4. RECEPTION MODEL brings the idea that

communication is an open process. This means
that messages sent and received are open to
various interpretations based on the context and
culture of the receiver. Additionally, there might
be various meanings to a single utterance that is
communicated.
Burgoon, J. (2012). Schramm Model of Communication.
https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Schramm-Model-of-
Communication_fig1_254051534https://www.researchgate.
It is evident among all the models that there are many ways of defining what communication
is or how it works. Perhaps, you have also observed that there are two distinct elements that
are intrinsically interconnected with the concept of communication—media and information.
These concepts are so intertwined that information is one of the reasons why
communication is done in the first place; and this information can be shared through media.

Indeed, communication is a vital part of human existence. Without
communication, life is miserable and boring. Today, communication could
be in the form of print, broadcast, or new media.
Print Media refers to the more traditional platforms of communication

that are tangible and have undergone printing. It comes in the most popular forms such as
books, newspapers, and magazines; journals, pamphlets, brochures and any other reading
materials.
Almost all printed materials have electronic versions already. But opening a book and
flipping its pages are still enjoyable experiences.
Broadcast Media are the communication platforms, which are described through its
capability of distributing audio and video content to a wide array of audiences. This media comes
in the form of radio and television. Distribution of broadcast content are through analog,
telephone and satellite methods.
22
The production of foreign films may be more advanced in terms of visual effects, given
their advanced technology. But these visual effects do not always translate to quality films.
Reserve a special place in your heart for low-budget but quality Filipino films, too.
New Media, the latest form of mass media, is described through its forms and technology
usage such as computers, internet, digital devices, video and online games, web and search
engines, social media and networking, digital information, telecommunication, mobile
telecommunication. This kind of media is characterized as fast, interactive, manipulated and
addictive. The most common kinds of new media are internet and social media.
The types of media can further be differentiated using the various categories: message type,
language, structure, format, audience, and reachability.

EXPLAIN
Being literate means being able to identify, understand, interpret, create,
communicate, and compute using printed and written materials associated with
varying contexts. In addition, literacy involves a continuum of learning, wherein
individuals are able to achieve their goals, develop their knowledge and potential.
In this subject, there are three important literacies that you should consider to become a
responsible user and producer of media.
MEDIA LITERACY
This kind of literacy is the ability to access, analyze, evaluate, and create media in a variety of
forms. It aims to empower citizens by providing them with the competencies (knowledge and
skills) necessary to engage with traditional media and new technologies.
The Principles of Media Literacy
1. All media are constructions. One of the
most critical concepts in media literacy is
that the media do not present simple
external reality reflections. Instead, they
present productions, which have specific
purposes.
Image Source: Ping, A. (2016). Key concepts and
questions in media analysis.
https://www.slideshare.net/arnielping/mil-information-
2. The media construct reality. All people

have a construct, which is a picture that
they have built up in their heads. All of us
have a construct representing the picture
that people have built up in their heads
since birth, what the world is, and how it
works. However, parts of those
observations and experiences are
preconstructed by media.
Image Source: Shazz, D.(2012). Media Construct Reality.
https://www.slideshare.net/dianaknoll/media-construct-
reality
29
3. The audience negotiates meaning in media.

Whenever we look at any media text, we find
meaning through a wide variety of factors:
personal needs and anxieties, the pleasure or
trouble of the day, racial and sexual attitudes,
family and cultural background. These
aspects have a bearing on how we process
information.
Image Source: Newsletter. (2016). A Different

Perspective.
https://www.veldhoencompany.com/en/news/a-different-
4. Media have commercial implications. Being media literate

means being aware of the economic basis of mass-media
production. People should be aware that media production
is a business and must make a profit. Frequently, the
content does not matter so long as the public welcomes it.
Dreamstime. (2000). Cartoon Money Illusration.
https://www.dreamstime.com/illustration/cartoon-money.html
5. Media contain ideological and value messages. People

should understand that all media products are not just
advertising but also show values or ways of life. These
media messages affirm the existing social system.
Trach, E. (n.d). Examples of core values.

https://examples.yourdictionary.com/examples-of-core-values.html
INFORMATION LITERACY
Information is a broad term that covers processed data, knowledge derived from study,
experience, instruction, signals or symbols. Hence, information literacy is the ability to
recognize when information is needed, and to locate, evaluate, and effectively communicate
information in its various formats.
30
Typology of Information
It is evident that our world is full of information. Hence, to be able to decrypt and understand the
information around us, it is good to consider the different types of information, which will make us a
better user and producer of information.
TECHNOLOGY LITERACY
This is the ability of an individual, either working independently or with others, to responsibly,
appropriately, and effectively use technological tools. Using these tools an individual can access,
manage, integrate, evaluate, create and communicate information.
Students who possess technology literacy are able to utilize a variety of digital devices and
interfaces to communication, troubleshoot and problem solve in both academic and non-academic
surrounding.
31
ELABORATE
As producers and consumers of information, you must display the ability to

evaluate the kind of information you access and share. This ability is
known as critical thinking skills. Being critical means being capable of
judging the merit of something based on certain standards of parameters.
According to media scholar Art Silverblatt, there are eight fundamental

elements of media and information literacy:
1. A critical thinking skill enabling 5. An understanding of media

audience members to develop content as a text that provides
independent judgments about insight into our culture and our lives
media content
2. An understanding of the 6. Development of effective and
process of mass responsible production skills
communication
3. An awareness of the impact of 7. The ability to enjoy, understand,
media on the individual and and appreciate media
society
4. Strategies for analyzing and 8. An understanding of the ethical
discussing media messages and moral obligations of media
practitioners

EXPLORE
Digital divide- the gap between groups, broadly construed in terms of

access to, use of, or knowledge, skills and even attitude of information
and communication technologies.
Digital footprint- the digital trail that any internet user leaves every time
he searches for any information. It creates digital imprint of his virtual
life, which enables some other online users including strangers to
identify them through their online behavior.
Online identity theft- stealing another person’s identity and pretending

to be the account owner.
Hacking- to break into a server, website, etc…from a remote location to
steal or damage data.
Cyber trespassing or cyber stalking- stealing another person’s
password to gain access to his or her personal accounts.
Flaming- to send an angry, critical, or disparaging electronic message.
Trolling- to post deliberately inflammatory articles on an internet

discussion board.
Online groomers- often adult sexual predators pretending to be peers.
Phishing- an attempt to make the user send his or her log- in
information and password to a fake online account.

Copyright is mainly the protection of one’s expressions which only

become tangible and concrete when objects are created as
manifestations of these expressions. The following are commonly
protected:
• Literary works such as novels, poems, plays reference works,
newspaper articles
• Computer programs, databases
• Films, musical compositions, and choreographies
• Artistic works such as paintings, drawings, photographs, and
sculptures
• Architecture
• Advertisement, maps, and technical drawings
An author of a particular work is entitled to two types of rights under a

copyright law.
• Economic rights or the right of an owner/ author to be
properly compensated financially upon his or her permission for
the work to be used by another;
• Moral rights or the rights to non- economic interests of the
author.
Since the products of human intellect have a direct influence on human
civilization and on the development of societies, there should be

Behavior does not necessarily have to
change when you are online. The same set
of expectations when it comes to attitude and
behavior still apply. Give other people their
due.
Online users are using the same space and
are also utilizing bandwidth. You can show
some respect by refraining maligning this
space and bandwidth.
In the online world, impression is everything
since people can take any identity. It is

Share only knowledge that matters. Do not
share knowledge that may not be productive
or that may jeopardize others.
Do not provoke or attack others. This way,
you help avoid flame wars.
Privacy is a natural human right. Utmost
respect of this right should always be
observed.
Great power comes with great responsibility.

Ubiquitous Learning
The word “Ubiquitous” came from the Latin world ubique, which means
“everywhere”. Ubiquitous Learning is the way of learning through the
objects that are present everywhere, more specifically associated with
technologies. It is also way of learning that is “situated and immersive”,
from going to the library to search for information, to search for information,
to search what your need through the internet, from having a traditional way
of learning, to a more advanced method.
Ubiquitous Learning or u- learning utilizes all forms of materials that may be
transferred to mobile devices via cable or wireless and be operated in these
mobile devices. These materials can be videos, audios, PowerPoint
presentations, or notes with embedded source data in them. U- learning
has shifted the learning paradigm from teacher-centered to learner-
centered. Students access instructional materials at different times from
different locations making them lifelong learners in that they are able to use
multiple devices to access and search for knowledge and information while
developing their search skills.

ENGAGE
Read and ponder:
The world as we know it, can never be understood without letters.

Letters went beyond characters used to convey a message into an
expression of love, hatred or any other emotion—a collection of
intelligence and an agreement for trade. Its development did not
stop there, though. Letters, technically referred to as text, also
became an object for art expression. This fusion of art and writing is
what we call now as typography.
Typography is the art of arranging text based on typefaces, point
size, line length, and spacing. It was intrinsically observed in ancient
times to create seals for the royalty or as text on currency. Massive
production and duplication of typographies emerged when
Johannes Gutenberg, a German goldsmith, invented the movable
printing press in the mid- 15th century. During those times, the
purpose of typography was to create readable and visually engaging
texts for readers. Now, typography varied depending on the tone,
mood, or theme of the setting where it will be used.

The pictures above are examples of how typography is used in media. What do you think are the
contributions of text in media and communication?

EXPLAIN
So what exactly is a text? Rouse (2015) defines a text as any human-readable
sequence of characters that can form intelligible words. In addition, text is a simple
and flexible format of presenting information or conveying ideas whether hand-
written, printed, or displayed on-screen; ergo, the term TEXT INFORMATION and
MEDIA.
In addition, text information and media suggest an easier and more flexible use in
terms of content production. Text is one of the elements of multimedia products
that can be combined with several other elements to present information and create an impression or
impact.
THREE CATEGORIES OF A TEXT
Plaintext Consists of fixed sized characters

having essentially the same type of
appearance
Formatted Text Offers some control over the general

appearance of alphanumeric
alphabets
Hypertext Serves to link different electronic

documents and enable users to jump
from one to another in a nonlinear way
Remember that these days, texts are generated with the use of word processing technology. This means
that texts can be produced, edited and formatted depending on the goal: to entertain or to inform.
Consequently, these texts are kept in different file formats such as TXT, DOC, RTF, PDF and PS.
65
COMMON FILE FORMATS
A standard text document that can be opened in any text editor or

word processing application on different operating systems
A native format for storing documents created by MS word package
A more exciting format than the document format because it supports text
formatting: bold, italics and underlining
An open standard format that supports images and graphics
A page description language used mainly for desktop publishing
As you have seen in the graphic organizer above, deciding on a file format for storage depends on how
you want to use the document.
Now, we proceed to how text could be presented in the different forms of media.

Furthermore, audio is also an essential part of media. It is easy to see
the importance of audio in all of the media we used. When used
correctly, audio media is capable of setting the mood and improving
the media in which it is used. Some of the media may work without
any audio, but the majority of media these days depend on good
audio media in order to be interesting.
There are three main categories of audio formats: UNCOMPRESSED FORMATS, LOSSLESS
COMPRESSIONS FORMATS, LOSSY COMPRESSION FORMATS. Let us define these:
1. Uncompressed audio format is also known as Pulse-code modulation (PCM) format, which does
not use no compression. This means that all data in the audio file is available. Files with the
WAV audio file format is an example of this category.
2. Lossless Compressed Audio Format is a compressed format, but would retain all of the file’s
data. This type of audio format reduces the space of silence in the audio file. Files with WMA
and FLAC audio file formats make use of this format.
3. Lossy Compressed Audio Format compresses audio files even further and it results to some
loss of data as the compression algorithm eliminates redundant or unnecessary information and
simplifies data. MP3 files make use of this format.
COMMON AUDIO FORMATS
It is also known as MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 Audio layer III. This greatly reduces
the size of the file, but still retains the quality of an uncompressed audio file by
getting rid of unnecessary audio found in the audio file, especially audio that cannot
be heard by humans.
Windows Media Audio is a Microsoft file format for encoding digital audio
files similar to MP3. WMA files also follow lossy compressed audio format
and it is one of the competitors of the MP3 format.
Waveform Audio File Format is a file format that was developed by Microsoft
and IBM that uses lossless data compression. WAV files came with Windows
95 making it the standard audio format.
67
Real Audio is a proprietary format, which means that its use is restricted. It
is used for streaming audio that enables you to play a digital audio file in
real-time or while it is being downloaded.
Musical Instrument Digital Interface uses lossy data compression. MIDI is

more similar to sheet music that plays notes, with pitch, length, and volume,
instead of an audio file.
Audio can be produced and edited using many different software. In order for you to start your audio
editing days, here are some of the common audio editing packages and their features.

72
ENGAGE
Reflect on the following questions:
• What do you feel whenever you look at your throwback

photographs?
• Do you feel nostalgic?
• Do you find yourself suddenly overwhelmed with different
emotions upon seeing pictures from the past?
EXPLORE
Indeed, pictures speak a thousand words – that is the power of visual

information.
73
EXPLAIN
Visual media are symbols, pictures, icons, and signs that communicate
with one’s sense of sight, Oftentimes, some media rely heavily on an
image without the use of words. Therefore, it is but proper that we
understand what an image is. An image is a type of visual information that
you normally see as either pure black and white or grayscale having a
number of gray shades or color containing a number of color shades.
Furthermore, visual information entails the use of visual media (that may or may not be accompanied
with audio/sound) in the form of photographs, motion picture, video recordings, graphic arts, visual aids,
and other displays that use pictorial representations.
Examples of Visual Information and Media:
Ideograms are graphical symbols that represent ideas.

75
With these examples, you were able to examine the facets of visual information and
media. It is true, therefore, that this is one of the most powerful dimensions of media since it
stimulates both intellectual and emotional responses.
Now, let us discuss the common visual media types. These are the ways by which you can
save visual information.
The Graphic Interchange Format (GIF) can render the image exactly if the image has fewer than
256 colors. However, when the image contains more than 256 colors, the software that creates GIF
uses an algorithm to approximate the colors in the image within the available color palette. Second,
Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG, JPG) can work by analyzing images discarding
kinds of information that the eye is least likely to notice. Unlike the GIF, JPEG is optimized for
photographs and similar continuous tone images that contain many, many colors. Third, Tagged
Image File Format (TIFF) is a very flexible format that is used for desktop publishing and graphic
design. It is used almost exclusively as a lossless image storage format that uses no compression at al.
Fourth, the Portable Network Graphic is usually used for digital art for it supports 24 bit color as a
foundation. Last, Bitmap (BMP) is an uncompressed proprietary format invented by Microsoft.
Most often than not, images found on Web sites are in GIF and JPG formats. The TIFF is not a
known image format because most Web browsers do not support it. PNG is much like a GIF
but is not a viable substitute for JPG because the latter allows for greater compression while
minimally reducing image quality.
The Elements and Design Principles of Visual Information and Media
The elements and principles of design are considered the foundations in creating a visual information.
These elements are likened to things that make up a painting, drawing and design. On the other hand,
the principles of design could be thought of what we do to the elements of design. The application of
the following principles will determine how successful the visual information will be.
Consistency refers to the steadiness or evenness of

margins, typeface, typestyle, and colors in slide
presentations or documents that are more than one page.
76
Center of interest is the area that first attracts the

audience’ attention in a composition. Oftentimes, the
objects or elements that are considered important are
given more colors.
Balance refers to the visual equality in shape, form,

value, and color. It can be symmetrical and evenly or
asymmetrical and unevenly balanced.
Harmony refers to the how the elements work

together to achieve one goal.
Contrast means to show a difference in the elements

found in the visual media. It offers some change in value
creating a visual discord in a composition.
Directional movement is a visual flow through the

composition.
Visual Information and Media is really a wonder. The images

have presented the information more easily and effectively.
77
ELABORATE
Pictures or images when integrated in moving texts and graphics on a display
would be called as motion media and information. Motion media are a
combination of visual information and audio information. They appeal to the senses
of sight and sound so it is more impactful in delivering a message than forms that
use texts only or sounds only.
Motion information and media includes motion pictures and motion videos. Motion pictures are
recorded on celluloid film and are projected on a screen in cinema theatres. On the other hand, motion
videos are represented as electrical signals from video devices. Furthermore, motion videos are
transmitted as TV broadcast signals and recorded on magnetic media and played back using VCD,
DVD or USB.
COMMON MOTION MEDIA TYPES
Terms related to use:
Codec is a device or program capable of performing encoding and decoding on a digital

data stream or signal. The word codec may be a combination of any of the following:
'Compressor-Decompressor', 'CoderDecoder', or 'Co Decmpression/Decompression
algorithm'.
Flash Video Format has been growing in popularity due to its cross-platform nature. It is
consistent and can be used equally well on personal computers and laptops.
Audio Video Interleave Format was developed by Microsoft. It stores data that can be encoded
in many different codecs and can contain both audio and video data.
Quicktime Format is a very common format that was developed by Apple. The format contains
separate tracks used for storing the video, audio, text and the effects of the file.
MP4 Format, also known as MPEG 4 Part 14 is mostly used to store audio and visual streams
online.

MPG Formats the common

format file that is standardized
by the Moving Picture Experts Group.

Remember that these elements are used because of a purpose. Speed is used to compare
vitality versus sadness, or vigor versus solemnity. Direction happens when an object or person grows
or shrink in the motion picture. The growing picture may connote importance while otherwise for a
shrinking object. On the other hand, timing and transition contributes to the flow of the story.
Oftentimes, overlapping scenes happen in a motion picture, and at some point, one scene is
highlighted as compared to the other scenes, which may show its influence to the unfolding of events in
the storyline. These elements when used properly can give an everlasting impact to the audience.

ENGAGE
Now that we are down on our last topic for this semester, it is time to evaluate our
skills regarding the dimensions of media.

dimensions of media and

EXPLORE
What are your thoughts
about manipulative
media and
multimedia?
EXPLAIN
Yuvienco (2017) states that the 21st educational system has focused
on both manipulative media and multimedia. These dimensions of media
had contributed to the emergence of blended learning.
So what is multimedia? Multimedia is a mode of perceiving information

by combining modalities such as texts, audio, and visuals. The converging media
can now easily share its content by just having the content linked from one
platform to another platform. Because of these convergences, the information is
shared and provided by the installed software that is capable of running the
program. There are various situations that you can make use of multimedia.
83
Here are the distinct features of multimedia:
• Multimedia is nonlinear
Since multimedia uses a variety of media to relay the information, the author or user can freely navigate
from one point of presentation to another. This means that unlike some forms of media, the use of
multimedia is not restricted by the chronological or logical sequencing of content. Multimedia can
exploit the use of hypertexts or hyperlinks that can let the user jump from one link to the next ink.
• Multimedia is interactive
Interactivity allows the user to control, combine and manipulate media. Furthermore, this permits the
user to embed hyperlinks, drop downs menus or clickable tabs/ buttons in order to navigate other points
within and outside the multimedia presentation. In education, multimedia can create an environment
within the presentation where the learner can give inputs and ask the system to provide certain outputs
or feedback.
• Multimedia modality is digital

This enables the user to instantly access different portions of a stored data. This is because of the

Our generation is said to be the experts of multimedia. Hence, understanding the positive and negative
sides of multimedia would make us become more skilled in using this form of media.

modified easily.
84
Now that you have understood the facets of multimedia, let us now discuss manipulative media.
Manipulative media is defined as any material, program, or application that people use to
formulate new information to aid learning through the use, analysis, evaluation, and production
of interactive and hands-on media. The use of manipulatives is constructivists because
students are actively engaged in discovery during the learning process. Therefore,
manipulative media is important in learning since it involves the stimulation of senses, which
produces better learning retention.
Manipulative media is otherwise known as interactive media, which means that the media
engage the user and interact with him or her in a way that non-interactive media do not. Some
examples include Web sites and video games. Social media is a kind of interactive media
because they use graphics and texts that allow the sharing of information between users. Video
games are also considered examples of interactive media or manipulative media because the
players or users are able to control and respond to visual and sound cues on the screen that
are generated by a computer program.
Furthermore, here are the criteria for consideration of manipulative-based media and information for the
integration to the lesson:
• Quality of material
• Development of the material
• Knowledgeable facilitator or teacher
Take note that manipulative media are any objects that allow students to explore an idea in an active
and hands-on approach. Its main aim is to let the students or users connect ideas and symbols to
physical objects, which will promote a better understanding.
ELABORATE
This is a reinforcement of the terms discussed in your unit 1 -4. Be reminded that multimedia
uses text, visuals and audio. Ergo, here are the elements of multimedia and manipulative media.
TEXT is used a headlines, subtitles, and slogans. Its purpose is to
express specific information or reinforce information in other media.
GRAPHICS may it be still or static pictures typically accompany text to
illustrate the point or ideas the text makes.
ANIMATION happens when certain figures or images are manipulated to
appear as moving images. It can also include interactive effects allowing visitors
to engage with the animation action using their mouse and keyboard.
AUDIO is a multimedia application that uses dialogue, recorded narration, music and sound
effects.
VIDEO is a medium used for recording, copying, playback and broadcasting.

MODULE 4
Media messages are curated from codes
and conventions which are reckoned as
part and parcel of media languages.
These codes and conventions are
embedded in genres which are used to
cluster media texts.
Genres, codes, and conventions can help

you interpret media messages, albeit
being just a consumer of media. Context
is also central to understanding the
messages spewed by genres, codes, and
conventions. Effective utilization of these
tools allows you to unravel hidden
MEDIA meanings of various media texts.
Indeed, the efforts that content creators

LANGUAGES sprinkle on their crafts to inform, entertain,
or persuade media consumers are quite
remarkable. However, as a media
AND consumer, you have to be smart and
critical when you absorb media messages
especially in the digital realm, where
PEOPLE MEDIA anyone can create a media content. They
say “in receiving media messages,
vigilance is key.” Ergo, you should
carefully examine media messages before
you completely “devour” them.
93
UNIT 1
to:
1. explain how media languages are

interpreted by an audience;
2. interpret media texts by looking into

genres and conventions used; and
3. discuss the implication of media and

information to an individual and
society.
94
ENGAGE
Recall your encounter with the following instances of media
exposure:
a. The types/themes of news story headlines;
b. The types/themes of print advertisement or TV commercials;
c. The genres/plots/themes of films;
d. The themes of reality-based programs; and
e. The trends in social media platforms (e.g., viral videos,
memes, etc…)
What can you say about the form and content of the messages that the
media forms above relay to audiences? Are there any consistent
patterns that characterize these messages?
EXPLORE
Various media and information sources use languages that communicate

different messages. Technical aspects of media sources, such as sounds
and lighting, affect how people interpret a message. Media and
information sources speak differently to their audience even if they have
similar content. This lesson will let you grasp how ideas or messages
are communicated through codes and conventions.
What is media language? Orbelar (2009) as cited in Bautista and Ignacio (2016)
state that media language is a method, which consists of signs and symbols, utilized
by information producers to convey meanings to their audiences. According to
Revano (2016), the different types of media languages are visual language, aural
language, written language, and non-verbal language.
Visual language broadly Aural language refers to diegetic Written language Non-verbal language
refers to codes and sound/non-diegetic sounds that pertains to text language refers to body languages

EXPLAIN
Media messages can be further understood when an audience has

a good grasp of the following constructs: genres, codes, and
conventions. Let us differentiate these terms vis-à-vis media
languages. Genres and conventions will be discussed in this unit;
codes will be discussed in the subsequent unit.
Genre is a French word for Convention is a practice or Code is a system or

“type” or “kind.” It is a significant technique that is generally collection of signs that

and other art and media forms.
Roles of Genre in Understanding Media Messages
Indeed, genre helps readers and viewers to understand a media message. However,
genre is not fixed or static; hence, there are factors that may influence how media messages
can be interpreted. The factors include:
• One’s role in the society, i.e., a student may interpret the message differently
compared to someone who is a working adult;
• Group purposes – one’s reason for consuming the message affects his
understanding of it, i.e., when one watches for entertainment, he tends to be less
critical of the hidden intention of the message;
• Professional and organizational preferences A media and information
and prerequisites – one’s biases toward the literate person has a specific
message may affect his interpretation of it; and mindset for each genre. This
• Cultural constraints – the culture one belongs ensures that the
to may have a different way of looking at things communication is properly
compared to other cultures.
achieved.
96
Another construct relevant to interpreting media messages is convention. According to

Croteau and Hoynes (2003), conventions are “techniques or practices that are widely used in
different fields. These are habits or long accepted ways of doing things, relatively on the style
and content.” Conventions can be classified as either technical or genre specific.
Technical Genre Convention

Media Conventions
The information presented in the table are common conventions used in film and print
media.
Conventions Key Concepts
Story principles Storylines - concurrent storylines; interrelated storylines

Themes – values statement; subliminal message
Motifs – reoccurring events, objects, or sounds
Form and structure Linear narrative – chronological structure of the narrative
Circular narrative – repeated plot points;
Flashback/Flash forward narrative – inclusion of flashbacks or flash-forwards
Character Character establishment; character development; character motivation
Cause and effect storyline Twists in narratives that engage audiences
Point on view Point of view from which the narrative is presented
POV referring to a SHOT taken from a character’s point of view
Structuring of time Temporal order – the order in which the story is screened
Temporal duration – the manipulation of time
97
Temporal frequency – the number of times an even is shown to an audience

Elements of page layout Elements of page layout consideration: space, hierarchy, images and size, color,
white space/negative space, text, headlines, font and size, etc…

ELABORATE
When you think of media messages, you may consider different types of
news or various forms of advertisement as examples of these because they
provide a venue for the transfer of a message through a medium. According
to a book entitled Understanding Media and Culture, “media messages can
range from overt statements to vague expressions of cultural values.”
Disagreements over the content of media messages certainly exist, but the
fact remains that mass media have long been used to persuade and create an impact on an
individual and the society. The following information briefly presents some implications of media
messages to an individual and the society.
Propaganda and Propaganda is a visual presentation used to change public attitudes about a
Persuasion particular person or subject. For instance, political parties and candidates use the
media to present information to the public, to shape public opinion, and to gain public
support.
Media and Behavior Media messages may affect people’s behavior positively or negatively. People may
acquire healthy lifestyle or explore aspects of identity like gender, sexuality, and
relationships. Meanwhile, media texts may trigger issues concerning body image,
health, lifestyle, etc…
Media and Sex In many types of media, sexual content—and its strong emotional message—can be
prolific. This exposure, according to researches, may have negative or positive
impacts on people.
Media and Culture Media sends messages that reinforce cultural values. Some advertisements can
reinforce cultural stereotypes that marginalize certain groups.
New Media and Society The Internet and other digital forms of communication have had a large effect on
society. These platforms provide easy access to a plethora of information that may
provide literacy.

target costumers? What cultural values or stereotypes are portrayed in the two advertisements?

to:
1. identify the technical, symbolic, and

written codes used to convey
meaning in a variety of media and
information texts;
2. recognize the pivotal role of media

creators in constructing media texts;
and
3. create a slideshow of snapshots that

103
ENGAGE
As mentioned previously, media messages can be interpreted by

looking into the codes used by media or content creators. Although
codes guide the way messages may be interpreted, is it a guarantee
that all people will understand the messages in the same way that
others would?
EXPLORE
Codes are systems of signs that are put together to create arbitrary
meaning (Fiske, 1987). Bautista and Ignacio (2016) explain that
codes consist of signs that have meaning and the meaning is
dictated by agreed rules of interpretation. However, they argued that
codes cannot guarantee that a media message will mean the same for all types of audiences,
albeit being deemed as guide for interpreting media messages. The message is still subject to
misinterpretation due to factors like culture, personal biases, and level of knowledge.
EXPLAIN
In the field of media, there is a long list of typologies of codes, but for
everyday consumption of media messages, the common codes will
be discussed in this lesson as they are more practical at the moment.
Knowing how to delve into the different codes employed in a media

text will definitely help you to extract its message/s. Young (2017)
says that akin to media conventions, media codes are considered as
building blocks of all forms of media. There are three common types of codes: technical codes,
symbolic codes, and written codes. The diagram below will succinctly explain the differences
among the three codes.
104
Codes
Symbolic Codes Technical Codes

objects; setting; Written Codes
camera shots and angles;
body language; framing; lighting; language style;
actions; exposure; textual layout
mise-en-scene depth of fields
A. Symbolic Codes
One way to analyze media representations is through denotations and connotations.

Denotation is the literal aspect of an information while connotation refers to the meaning or
interpretation people associate with an information.
Ferdinand de Saussure and Charles Pierce used the terms signifier (denotation) and
signified (connotation) in their discussion of semiotics, which is deemed as the study of signs
and symbols.
Each of the pictures below has one denotation which explains the information presented
in its literal sense. However, several connotations can be extracted from each image.
Denotation/Signifier – a red rose,

which is a type of flower
Connotation/Signified – romance;
love; passion
Denotation/Signifier – a
closed/clenched and raised fist
Connotation/Signified – solidarity;
support; against oppression
CARP (n.d.). Photo of a clenched fist on a red background.

105
There are codes embedded in objects, setting, body language, clothing, and color. These
codes suggest or connote, rather than explicitly state the meaning of a media message. The
understanding of the message may depend on the receiver of the message. For instance, in
soap opera scene, you may see a character dressed in black and crying while seated on a chair
and caressing an object of importance to her. Because of your familiarity with the cultural
symbolism of wearing black, you will begin to think that a character very dear to the one crying
has passed away. Another example is when a drinking glass suddenly slips from the hand of a
character which connotes a premonition that danger looms or trouble awaits. Symbolic codes
are very effective in suggesting meaning because they utilize your sense of imagination and rely
on your familiarity with cultural signs and symbols.
Color has a huge psychological impact on audience, both in print and moving image.
Color is often an element that a creator will rely on to convey ideological meaning for the
audience. Color grading as an editing technique has a psychological effect on an audience’s
reading of a narrative. By manipulating color, the creator suggests a preferred reading of the
text.
Codes and Conventions. (n.d.). Image of color psychology [Online Image].

http://www.mediaknite.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/Code-Convention-
Booklet.pdf
In film, color is used to set the tone of the scene before any of the actors have even
muttered a word of dialogue. Red denotes passion, power, love, and danger. Pink signifies
femininity, innocence, and beauty. Yellow is associated with joy, naivety, and insanity. Blue
symbolizes isolation and calmness.
106
Another important symbolic code used by film/theatre producers or directors to add depth
and meaning to media contents is mise-en-scène. Mise-en-scène [mēz ˌän ˈ s en] is a French term
that means everything within the frame. The following constructs are deemed as the four aspects
of mise-en-scène.
Setting
These are the elements within the frame that function to depict space, place, and time period.
Costume and Make-Up
Costume and make-up express character situation, mood, or consciousness.
Costume can play important motivating and causal roles in the narrative.
Make-up functions to define and articulate character.
Lighting
Lighting conveys texture.
Lighter and darker areas within the frame help create the overall composition of each shot, guiding our attention within the frame.
Lighting shapes objects by creating highlights and shadows.

Acting (Figure movement and expression)
This pertains to the physical performance of character, including gestures, expressions, and actions.
In film, mise-en-scene helps one understand the meaning of the story by carefully
evaluating the cinematographic elements (lighting, camera angle, camera shots, color scheme,
etc.), character elements (blocking, acting, wardrobe, costume, make-up, etc.), or set design
(props, decor, etc.). In a stage play, mise-en-scene pertains to every element that is set on stage.
It allows the audience to construe the meaning of the play by looking into the interplay of different
elements such as setting, props, costume, hairstyle, make-up, wardrobe, characterization,
acting, lighting, color scheme, etc…
Look for the link below, and watch the short video about the essence of mise-en-scène in
film-making. The clip is entitled What is Mise-en-scene in Film?
https://www.studiobinder.com/blog/mise-en-scene/
107
B. Technical Codes
Technical codes refer to the equipment or materials that are used to tell the story in a media text
such as camera angles and techniques, framing, depth of fields, lighting, and exposure. The type of film
shot or the manner of capturing a scene or even the way the scenes are spliced and put together through
editing suggests a particular meaning.
1. Camera Shots. A camera shot is the amount of space that is seen in one shot or frame. Camera
shots are used to demonstrate different aspects of a film's setting, characters and themes, making them
very important in shaping meaning in a film.
108
5. Medium shot is one of the most common

camera shots. It frames from roughly the waist up
and through the torso, and it emphasizes more of
the subject while keeping the surroundings visible.
Medium shot example from X-Men: Days of Future

Past
6. Medium close-up frames the subject from

roughly the chest up. It typically favors the face,
but still keeps the subject somewhat distant. The
medium close-up camera shot size keeps the
characters eerily distant even during their face-to-
face conversation.
Medium close-up shot example from No Country
for Old Men
7. Close-up shot fills the frame with a part of the
subject. If the subject is a person, it is often his/her
face. This is used to reveal a subject’s emotions
and reactions.
Close-up shot example from The Usual Suspects
8. Extreme close-up shot is the most one can fill

a frame with the subject. It often shows eyes,
mouth, and gun triggers. In extreme close-up
shots, smaller objects get great detail and are the
focal point.
Extreme close-up shot example from X-Men: First

Class

shot list. https://www.studiobinder.com/blog/ultimate-guide-to-camera-shots/
109
2. Camera Angles. The angle of the camera is the angle from which the image is viewed. The
camera angle can have a major impact on how the audience will perceive a character, object,
or place.
https://www.studiobinder.com/blog/ultimate-guide-to-camera-shots/
110
5. Aerial shot is taken from way up high. It

establishes a large expanse of scenery.
Aerial shot example from Blade Runner
6. Ground level shot is taken when the camera’s

height is on ground level with the subject. Needless
to say, this shot captures what’s going on the
ground where the subject stands on.
Ground level shot example from Star Wars VIII: The

Last Jedi
7. Shoulder level shot is taken when the camera

is roughly as high as the subject’s shoulders. A
shoulder level shot is actually much more standard
than an eye level shot, which can make the actor
seem shorter than reality. It can maximize the
feeling of superiority when paired with a low angle.
Shoulder level shot example from Black Panther
8. Bird’s eye view shot or overhead shot is from

way up high, looking down on the subject and a
good amount of the scenery surrounding him or
her. This can create a great sense of scale and
movement.
Overhead shot example from Eternal Sunshine of

the Spotless Mind

preceded it.
112
3. Camera Movements. Composers of films also use camera movement to shape meaning.
The following are some examples of common camera movements and how they can be used
to shape meaning in films.
113
C. Written codes
Written codes refer to the use of language style and textual layout (headlines, captions,
speech bubbles, among others). The use of language style and layout also express meaning. In
newspapers, for instance, the layout speaks about the degree of importance of a news story with
respect to other news stories. Typically, newspaper editors follow the inverted “S” of news layout
because the mode by which people read would be from left to right and from the upper fold of
the newspaper down to the lower fold. Captions, titles, taglines, and other language
elements are also utilized in a way that may suggest a meaning. This is more often dictated by
editorial principles and policies of a news agency or organization.
Look at the following examples of print media. Take note of how the language style and
textual layout of each publication conveys the intended messages.

ENGAGE
What is people media? Who do you think are deemed as people media?
EXPLORE
People media refers to an assembly of people with a common interest of
becoming the main means of mass communication. Stone (n.d.) mentions that
people media consists of people who communicate certain information towards
an audience. It also refers to people who appear in different forms of media like
TV, radio, and print media for the same purpose. There are two types of people
media: people as media and people in media. The Venn diagram below will
explicate the difference between the two.
119
People who are well- Media practitioners who

oriented in media sources People People provide information coming
from their expert knowledge
and messages;
they are able to as in or first-hand experiences of
provide inform as accurate events
and reliable as possible media media
EXPLAIN
Carballo (2018) explains that people media is known as the assembly of
people with common interest where they become the main means of mass
communication. In other words, people are media themselves since they
have the ability for mass communication. People as media is classified into
the following constructs: opinion leaders, citizen journalism, social journalism,
and crowdsourcing. On the other hand, people in media are the print
journalists, photojournalists, broadcast journalists, and multimedia journalists.
PEOPLE AS MEDIA
1. Opinion Leaders
- They are knowledgeable and respected in their
field, with views that carry significance to the
community.
- They are sources of viable interpretation of
messages for lower-end media users.
- They interpret rather than copy media content,
and they actively share it with the public. Cision. (2018). A screenshot of Stephen King’s tweet. [Online Image].
https://www.cision.com/2018/07/influencers-vs-opinion-leaders/
- Their opinions are accepted by a group.
120
2. Citizen Journalism
- People without professional journalism training
can use the tools of moderns technology and
Internet to create, augment, or fact-check media on
their own or in collaboration with others.
Gulotta, N. (n.d.). A photo of Occupy Wall Street demonstration.

[Photograph].https://misinfocon.com/citizen-journalism-could-become-
collateral-damage-in-the-fight-against-fake-news-c93658a59fd4
3. Social Journalism
- Social journalism is a fusion of professional
journalists, contributors, and readers.
- Social journalists are essentially professional
journalists or “paid and unpaid contributors and
readers.”
- Journalists use social media platforms to make
their content available to more people.
Medium. (n.d.). A screenshot of Medium online publishing platform.

https://medium.com
4. Crowdsourcing
- It is the practice of obtaining needed services,
ideas, or content by soliciting contributions from a
large group of people especially form the online
community.
Remitio, R. (2019). In Facebook. [Facebook Page].

https://www.facebook.com/RexCNNPH
121
PEOPLE IN MEDIA
1. Print Journalists
2. Photojournalists
3. Broadcasts journalists
4. Multimedia journalists
ELABORATE
Since people media are generally deemed as individuals involved in the
production and dissemination of media contents, they are expected to
emulate dedication, passion, sociability, respect, trust, creativity, and
dynamism. Magpile (2016) succinctly describes people media as:
a. Dedicated and passionate – Since they have a great responsibility on their

shoulders to meet the expectations of a wide variety of audience, they must
be dedicated and passionate to accomplish their tasks and to satisfy their
audience.
b. Sociable and outgoing – Media gets its messages from people, so it is
important for them to meet and talk to people that could answer their
questions.
c. Respectable and trustworthy – Media must maintain its reputable image.
People media are responsible for delivering factual information because the
public relies on them for information.
d. Creative and dynamic - People involved in media must also come up with
creative and unique ideas to attract the audience’s attention. They must
become flexible for them to offer a one-of-a-kind perspective.
