Media Literacy / Education

Media literacy is basically the "ability to “access, analyse, evaluate and use” media." (Wikipedia).  Many non-profit digital media programs find it essential to incorporate media literacy components into their workshops and programs, but what's the best approach?  Are there free curriculum available out there for CTC VISTAs to use?  Does it make sense to teach media literacy to CTC VISTAs themselves?

Here's the ideas generated during the brainstorming at the Fall '06 PSO around this topic: 

-media construction (reference MNN curriculum, ACME)
--developing a critical eye
-connecting media making to school curriculums
-equipment donation
-audio production
