Media Education and the End of the Critical Consumer.
Buckingham, David
Harvard Educational Review, v73 n3 p309-27 Fall 2003

Students' efforts at media production manifest a more playful concept of knowledge and learning, requiring a more comprehensive postmodern approach to media education. (Contains 47 references.) (SK)
