Teaching teenagers to filter their media choices.
April 28, 2011
Teenagers are inundated with media every day - video games, TV, movies, YouTube, texting, Facebook, iPods. In fact, studies show that the average teenager consumes more than 7 hours of media a day. That doesn't even count any media related to homework assignments or class projects!
With so many media options out there, it's critical for teenagers to be equipped with tools that help them make wise choices. That's where Download comes in. .This 3-week video curriculum from youth culture expert Walt Mueller will teach our teenagers how to filter their media choices.
In a culture where the traditional institutions like families, schools, and churches don't nurture teenagers like they once did, students are turning more and more to the media for the nurture and guidance they need. I encourage all students to attend these three sessions.
Session 1 - Discover - May 18
Session 2 - Discern - May 25
Session 3 - Decide - June 1
