Nine units help senior high school students critically examine the influence of television on their lives. Topics covered are: the role of television in one's life, television's presentation of reality, commercials, program production, conflict on television, heroes and models, relationships, problems and solutions presented on television shows, and student selection of programs to watch. Each unit contains a reading, discussion questions, and a number of suggested activities. Supplementary material consists of a television viewer's checklist and a list of Christian values that form a basis for the critical evaluation of television programs. (LP)
