Media Ready

Media Ready is a research-based media literacy program for 6th to 8th grade students, designed to delay or prevent the onset of substance use, particularly with respect to underage drinking.

Through ten lessons of interactive activities, hands-on practice, and group work, students discover the media world around them and develop skills to better understand the messages that are being sent to them. It is intended that they then apply these skills in everyday life to be able to stop, think, and question before accepting media messages.

It is desired that students will become more active consumers who will make informed choices.
