Television, print media, and the Internet are all filled with advertising, opinions, and other hidden persuasions. In this BrainPOP movie, Tim and Moby teach students how to be a more astute consumer of mass media: https://brnpop.co/31xkma3

Teach your students how to recognize when someone is trying to convince them to buy something or believe something. They’ll find out why advertisers use celebrities and models so frequently, and even manipulate images to make them look even more attractive than in real life.

They’ll also explore why no news source is truly free from bias and how to separate fact from opinion. Discover strategies for decoding everything from TV shows to newspapers to your favorite websites.
