Sometimes this happens be- cause of lack of resources, sometimes because of individual problems, and others because of pandemics. This book was planned to be published some time ago as part of a UNESCO col- lection. We were faced with lack of resources and some individual problems. Then came the pandemic. But finally, everything has been resolved. We managed to allocate resources from the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB) and the Arab Academy for Science, Technology and Maritime Transport to publish our Yearbook. We will also be able to publish the next one. Let's hope that neither the pandemic nor any other complication stands in the way of making this happen. Perseverance and constancy always lead to success. Media and Information Literacy is about perseverance and constancy. At this moment, it is also about opportunity. We will overcome the future obstacles. We will most certainly do. Content Introductory note 7 PART I.

During the second decade of the twenty-first century, humanity has experienced a remarkable change in the cognitive paradigm. The status of information and knowl- edge has varied. Until now, information and knowledge were individual, personal issues. They depended on personal abilities, on individual possibilities of accessing information, and abilities to criticize it, process it and memorize it. It is true that the so-called institutions of knowledge (schools, universities, publishing systems and media, etc.) contributed to providing a concrete environment to individuals, improving conditions of information and knowledge. But today, the status of infor- mation and knowledge remains unequal but is also social, collective, and global. It depends more and more on computers, robots and complex systems of knowledge production; increasingly automated and autonomous. This is why, in this new paradigm, the current task of media and information literacy is to boost freedom of expression and enhance the status of knowledge, tak- ing into account the emergence of what Pierre Levy has called collective intelligence and UNESCO’s concept of Knowledge Societies. It is not just about empowering individuals with skills; MIL has to enrich collective capabilities. It is not about being individually critical; collective intelligence must be critical. It is not about enhancing individual memory; collective memories must be stimulated. We are therefore facing significant changes in the functions and missions of MIL. Hence, quality and verity of information in the face of disinformation is decisive. For this reason, S. Tejedor, S. S. Tayie and C. Pulido speak of a “Responsible News Ex- perience”. For the same reason, J. Sakamoto defends the same responsibility not only to counteract against “fake news”, but also hate speech. Further, D. Franco Migues defends new strategies for critical decoding of social network’s “fake news”. It is important however to problematise the words “fake news” – as does UNES- CO’s 2018 publication Journalism, Fake News, and Disinformation. It is

  • Gender Biased Hiding of Extraordinary Abilities in Girl-Powered Disney Channel Sitcoms from the 2000S
    SECRET SUPERSTARS AND OTHERWORLDLY WIZARDS: Gender Biased Hiding of Extraordinary Abilities in Girl-Powered Disney Channel Sitcoms from the 2000s By © 2017 Christina H. Hodel M.A., New York University, 2008 B.A., California State University, Long Beach, 2006 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Film and Media Studies and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Chair: Germaine Halegoua, Ph.D. Joshua Miner, Ph.D. Catherine Preston, Ph.D. Ronald Wilson, Ph.D. Alesha Doan, Ph.D. Date Defended: 18 November 2016 The dissertation committee for Christina H. Hodel certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: SECRET SUPERSTARS AND OTHERWORLDLY WIZARDS: Gender Biased Hiding of Extraordinary Abilities in Girl-Powered Disney Channel Sitcoms from the 2000s Chair: Germaine Halegoua, Ph.D. Date Approved: 25 January 2017 ii ABSTRACT Conformity messaging and subversive practices potentially harmful to healthy models of feminine identity are critical interpretations of the differential depiction of the hiding and usage of tween girl characters’ extraordinary abilities (e.g., super/magical abilities and celebrity powers) in Disney Channel television sitcoms from 2001-2011. Male counterparts in similar programs aired by the same network openly displayed their extraordinariness and were portrayed as having considerable and usually uncontested agency. These alternative depictions of differential hiding and secrecy in sitcoms are far from speculative; these ideas were synthesized from analyses of sitcom episodes, commentary in magazine articles, and web-based discussions of these series. Content analysis, industrial analysis (including interviews with industry personnel), and critical discourse analysis utilizing the multi-faceted lens of feminist theory throughout is used in this study to demonstrate a unique decade in children’s programming about super powered girls.
