Abstract

Taking into account the rapid development of the modern world of information and communication technologies and the media system, there is an urgent need for an individual’s focused preparation to use this space skilfully and consciously. The article reveals methods, types, techniques and forms of using media education elements in the educational process in order to socialize students in the modern communication environment. The purpose of the research is to consider media education as a means of forming students’ media culture in order to develop a creative personality that is ready for life in modern information environment. Media education is a pedagogical direction, representatives of which emphasize the necessity to study the laws of mass communication (press, television, radio, cinema, etc.). Media education should be an integral part of the educational process of children and young people, as media sources and media scene affect them differently. Thus, a focused process of teaching effective and secure interaction with the media as well as education of a conscious personality would ensure the formation of students’ media immunity and lead to significant progress in their self-education, self-improvement and self-actualization. The urgency of this process is explained by the fact that in the context of globalization and information society, mass media often have a decisive influence on the way people perceive the world. Teachers of general secondary, vocational, technical and higher education institutions should be involved in the implementation of this process. In the future, further studies will allow us to identify and substantiate the trends and directions of teacher training who will contribute to the development of media literate professionals.
