Nike and Dove AdvertisementsCopy: My shoulders aren't dainty or proportional to my hips. Some say they are like a man's. I say, leave men out of it. They are mine. I made them in a swimming pool then I went to yoga and made my arms.

Copy: My knees are tomboys. They get bruised and cut every time I play soccer. I'm proud of them and wear my dresses short. My mother worries I will never marry with knees like these. But I know there's someone out there who will say to me: I love you and I love your knees. I want the four of us to grow old together.

Copy: My butt is big and round like the letter C and then thousand lunges have made it rounder but not smaller. And that's just fine. It's a space heater for my side of the bed. It's my ambassador. To those who walk behind me, it's a border collie that herds skinny women away from the best deals at clothing sales. My butt is big and that's just fine. And those who might scorn it are invited to kiss it.

Campaign for Real Beauty?• “For too long, beauty
has been defined by narrow, stifling stereotypes. Dove believes real beauty comes in many shapes, sizes and ages. That is why they are launching the Campaign for Real Beauty.” (www.campaignforrealbeauty.com)

• Muslims believe it is sacrilege to present any image, even those that may seem benign, of the Prophet Muhammad. That's in contrast to adherents of many other religions, who view the display of figures such as Buddha or Jesus Christ to be a sign of devoutness.

• Half the Population, a Fifth of the News By Sanjay Suri Inter Press Service
• Wednesday 15 February 2006 • London - More and more women are now reporting the news,
but still only about a fifth of the subjects are women, a new survey shows.
• "What we see in news subjects is that whilst women make up 52 percent of the world's population, they make up only 21 percent of news subjects," Anna Turley from the World Association for Christian Communication (WACC) told IPS. WACC is a non-governmental organisation that promotes communication for social change.

As we enter the twenty first century, it is essential that the schools be places that help students better understand the complex, symbol-rich culture in which they live in.
A new vision of literacy is essential if educators are serious about the broad goals of education: preparing students to function as informed and effective citizens in a democratic society; preparing students to realize personal fulfillment; and preparing students to function effectively in a rapidly changing world that demands new, multiple literacies.
Renee Hobbs, 1997

It is no longer enough to simply read and write. Students must also become literate in the understanding of visual images. Our children must learn how to spot a stereotype, isolate a social cliché and distinguish facts from propaganda, analysis from banter, important news from coverage.

The aim is to develop an awareness about print and the newer technologies of communications so that we can orchestrate them, …. And get the best out of each in the educational process.
Without understanding of media languages and grammars, we cannot hope to achieve a contemporary awareness of the world in which we live.

The "V" for victory that Winston Churchill used (with the palm facing outward, same as the American sign for "peace"), when the palm is reversed, it means something else... If a person used two fingers to order two beers in a British pub.. it has insulting connotations…

Advantages of semiotics• Allows us to break down a message into its
component parts and examine them separately and in relationship to one another.
• Allows us to look for patterns across different forms of communication.
• Helps us understand how our cultural and social conventions relate to the communication we create and consume.
• Helps us get beyond “the obvious,” which may not be all that obvious after all.

A democratic civilization will save itself only if it makes the language of the image into a stimulus for critical reflection, not an invitation to hypnosis.

Teacher’s Role
• Education must begin with the solution of the teacher-student contradiction, by reconciling the poles of the contradiction so that both are simultaneously teachers and students.
Paulo Freire
