Development of Methodical Materials for The Course "Media Communications in Moscow" for Media Teachers

In contemporary society, media communications play a pivotal role in shaping opinions, disseminating information, and influencing public discourse. This project addresses the growing need for tailored teaching materials within the context of Moscow, aimed at enhancing media education quality. Specifically designed for tenth-grade students, the project aims to engage them effectively in critically analyzing and navigating the local media landscape. Through extensive research, consultation with experts, and feedback from educators, methodical materials have been developed covering various aspects of media communications in Moscow. These materials provide a structured framework for teaching, including topics such as the media system, market dynamics, content creation, promotion, analytics, and public speaking fundamentals. By fostering critical thinking and media literacy, these materials empower students to navigate the complex media environment with confidence. The manual, designed for 10th-grade teachers, offers a 32-hour program with methodological recommendations for organizing training, control, and evaluation. Ultimately, this project aims to equip media educators with valuable resources to optimize media education in Moscow schools.
