Abstract(s)

The European Commission has just published a communication, in order to advise the 27 state members to integrate Media Education in the curricula of all schooling levels. The objective of this initiative is to create opportunities so that students and teachers might be specific trained in order to become critical consumers and reflexive producers of media messages. This paper deals with the design, production, validation and use of the CD-Rom "Vamos fazer jornais escolares" and shows the first results of a research conducted during two years where the CD-Rom was used with students, aged 11-16, so that they could produce media messages for the school newspaper either for the printed or on-line editions.
