A Media Literacy Project LIS 405

In this project, we are to investigate the topic of Handheld Video Games to ascertain what the media is saying to the intended audience about images and stories. We are to look carefully at:
   Implied values and attitudes transmitted by the media
   Accessibility – understanding it as well as being able to obtain/access it
   Gender of the intended audience – is it directed mainly to young females, males, no specific gender?
   Is this a “respected” media or something that offers a chance to “defy” authority?


The content we are looking for will focus on children, not parents and teachers.  (de Vos, G., 2013)
