Teaching the media in the digital era : perspectives on the mediation on knowledge about media in a French-German comparative approach ; Eduquer aux médias à l'ère numérique : enjeux communicationnels de la médiation des savoirs dans une perspective franco-allemande
This doctoral thesis examines mediations in the exchange of knowledge regarding media education from the perspective of information and communication sciences. Media pedagogy has existed since the beginning of the century and the emergence of mass media. First developed by activist educators, they were progressively introduced to the school system in France and Germany, before being accepted as an official field in the 1980s.

Thus we explore the key concepts of literacy, digital culture (culture numérique) and media competence (Medienkompetenz) and question the perimeter of media education and digital skills. Interviews with members of the education and training sector and with teenagers in school contexts finally enable us to identify how knowledge about media is transmitted, as well as the educational and political implications of this process. ; Cette thèse étudie les enjeux communicationnels de la médiation des savoirs en éducation aux médias (EAM) dans une perspective franco-allemande.

Celui-ci gagne progressivement en légitimité jusqu'à être inclus dans les programmes au début des ...
