lives. It lies at the core of freedom of expression and information- since it empowers citizens
to understand the functions of media and other information providers to critically evaluate
their content, and to make informed decisions as users and producers of information and
media content.” (UNESCO)
With the flooding information that technology offers, weighing the validity, accuracy,
and reliability become a burden to an individual who doesn’t know how to use it.
Who are media literate individuals? From the framework of Aufderheide (1992 as
cited in Koltay, 2011): A media literate person can decode, evaluate, analyze and produce both
print and electronic media. Emphases in media literacy training range widely, including
informed citizenship, aesthetic appreciation and expression, social advocacy, self-esteem, and
consumer competence. In other words, media literate individual cannot only use media
platforms but, able to analyze and evaluate information that was taken from it.

Being able to evaluate media information leads an individual to explore the use of
technologies in various fields such as businesses, commerce, and communications. The use
of technologies in promoting these economic aspects creates an impact on media users and
most especially to society.
