Abstract

This contribution is about media competence and the modalities with which to develop it in media educators and consumers education. The concept of media competence is a very important one in Media Education practice: it refers to critical thinking and autonomous relationship between subjects and media. Starting from an analysis of the concept, it will be possible to talk about a sensible transition from an emphasis about text analysis and semiotic methodologies to a new attention about a broad-band system of competencies into which the real focus is the development of metacompetencies..
