  • Teaching the Media with Mouse Woman: Adventures in Imaginative Education
    Teaching the Media with Mouse Woman: Adventures in Imaginative Education by Kymberley Stewart M.A., Simon Fraser University, 2004 Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Curriculum Theory & Implementation Program Faculty of Education Kymberley Stewart 2014 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Summer 2014 Approval Name: Kymberley Stewart Degree: Doctor of Philosophy (Education) Title: Teaching the Media with Mouse Woman: Adventures in Imaginative Education Examining Committee: Chair: Allan MacKinnon Associate Professor Mark Fettes Senior Supervisor Associate Professor Kieran Egan Supervisor Professor Michael Ling Supervisor Senior Lecturer Lynn Fels Internal/External Examiner Associate Professor Faculty of Education David Jardine External Examiner Professor Faculty of Education University of Calgary Date Defended: August 20, 2014 ii Partial Copyright Licence iii Ethics Statement iv Abstract Concerns have been expressed for decades over the impact of an increasingly media-saturated environment on young children. Media education, however, occupies a somewhat marginal place in compulsory schooling, and its theorists and practitioners have given relatively little attention to the question of how to teach the media to elementary school children. This question is explored through an auto-ethnography and métissage spanning more than twenty years of media use, media studies, and media education. Three shifts in emphasis are particularly central to the thesis. The first is a shift from a protectionist to a more open, albeit critical stance with respect to children‘s media use. The second is a shift from conceiving of media education in terms of a pre-packaged curriculum towards the co-construction of learning experiences with the students, guided by Egan‘s theory of imaginative education.

  • The Smurfs Were Communists! by Dave Morgan Okay, I Know It
    The Smurfs Were Communists! By Dave Morgan Okay, I know it sounds crazy. I didn't believe it myself at first. Then I started thinking about it, and it starts getting scary. First of all, you must put aside all the media-programmed, propaganda-driven thoughts or irrational fears you might already have about communists. Forget all that big bad Russian stuff that the 80's taught us, that doesn't exist anymore. Think of communism as just a way of life, a social order, an economic standpoint, a lifestyle choice. Take all the visions of sickles and hammers and tanks out of your head for awhile, and then you will be able to see it clearly. First of all, the Smurfs shared everything. The food in the Smurf village was stored away in those mushrooms the minute it was harvested and then equally distributed to all the Smurfs throughout the year. No one "farmer Smurf" sold his crop to a "consumer Smurf," or saw his labor exploited by another. It was understood that the crop was for the entire Smurf population, not for the sale or profit of one Smurf alone. Then there were those jobs each Smurf held. There was Handy Smurf, and Painter Smurf, and Brainy Smurf, etc... Each Smurf had his own specific job and was not allowed to try his hand at any other Smurf's assigned task. There actually was an episode where each Smurf tried to do another one's job, and failed. The moral of the story was apparently "Stick to what you do Best" or to put it another way, stick to what the society has chosen for you, or maybe just "You'll get what you get and like it!" Handy Smurf was always building.

  • The Theology of South Park As Much As They Hate Each Other, the One Thing That Osama Bin Laden and George W
    The Theology of South Park As much as they hate each other, the one thing that Osama bin Laden and George W. Bush have in common is a theological understanding of a world being divided between the forces of good and evil with each believing he is clearly on the side of good. President Bush sees himself as most strongly influenced by Jesus Christ, a compassionate conservative who responds to what he sees as a completely unprovoked attack with a mixture of care packages and bombs. Bin Laden, who considers himself one of the true followers of Mohammed, believes that he is clearly on a mission to cleanse the infidels who have disrespected sacred monuments, supported oppressive governments, and kept his people in extreme poverty. Neither they nor their followers can see any shades of gray. You're either for us or against us; for freedom or tyranny; with the infidels or the pious. And both lay a strong claim of having God's blessings. This, of course, is not a new rhetorical strategy; throughout time, many countries have tried to legitimize their interests by calling forth God as a sponsor. Voltaire calls this practice into question throughout Candide as does Mark Twain in his short story, "The War Prayer." The absurdity of believing too fully in a system that draws clear lines between good and evil was also evident to Eugene Ionesco when, during the second world war, he witnessed the consequences of a blind faith in fascism, a system that fully aligned itself with God's blessing and thus did not allow for uncertainty, shades of gray, or a sense of humor.
