The aim of this master thesis is to review most popular ideas on media didactics and
to study the possibilities of putting them into practice in primary and secondary
schools in Estonia. Considering the fact that media education is a very complicated
interdisciplinary field, one planning to contribute to development of media education
must consider media theories as well as educational theories and practice.
There is now only minimal legal basis for developing media education but the lack
of resources and teachers`) skills makes one wonder if the current way of teaching
is really sufficient. Constructivist paradigm accepted in our educational system (also
supported by national curriculum) is starting to create a beneficial ground for media
education starting from first school level (grades I – III). However, the weaknesses
of our school system are an overloaded curriculum and the teachers` insufficient
about media. The media themes represented in textbooks of I – III school level are
too genre centred and neglecting students` own media usage. At the same time the
media critical view is not supported.
During the research of possibilities on broad integration of media education
into other subjects in school levels 1-3 the author of this master thesis has based on
an existing real curricula of teachers. The aim of studying the curricula was to find
possible integration fields between media education and other subjects. The seminar
like working method was very successful, as it supported teachers` interest and
motivation towards media education. In the process a a great number of exercises
were worked out. Most of them are published by TÜ Kirjastus. The published material includes exercises for better understanding of news and advertisements as
well as public and private spheres. There is also a short theoretical part added to
every subject and and lots of helping hints for teachers who are willing to modify
these excersizes for different subjects and age groups.
