B. Developmental Activities
1. Presentation of the Topic
Use of Media and Information

Media has evolved through the years making people’s life easier. One of the
most effective use of media is on communication. Media plays significant
role in sharing information across the globe. Media keeps people aware and
updated on important events and happenings. But in the other hand, media
also has advantages and disadvantages.

Different forms and types of media can be found everywhere, as a result we

can easily access information with just one click, but using social media has
its downside. Media can affect a person in a negative way. People’s opinion
and thoughts can be limited in medias. Although you can share our thoughts
freely, you can still experience judgements and harsh comments in your
opinion. A person can experience cyberbullying. Another downside in media
is that sometimes it provides fake and unreliable information.

Journalistic ethics and standards

This comprise principles of ethics and good practice applicable to journalists.

This subset of media ethics is known as journalism's professional "code of
ethics" and the "canons of journalism". The basic codes and canons
commonly appear in statements by professional journalism associations and
individual print, broadcast, and online news organizations.

While various codes may have some differences, most share common
elements including the principles of truthfulness, accuracy, objectivity,
impartiality, fairness, and public accountability, as these apply to the
acquisition of newsworthy information and its subsequent dissemination to
the public.

Like many broader ethical systems, the ethics of journalism include the
principle of "limitation of harm." This may involve the withholding of certain
details from reports, such as the names of minor children, crime victims'
names, or MEDIA AND INFORMATION LITERACY SHS information not
materially related to the news report where the release of such information
might, for example, harm someone's reputation.

Some journalistic codes of ethics, notably some European codes, also include
a concern with discriminatory references in news based in race, religion,
sexual orientation, and physical or mental disabilities.

Current media state

Anyone who has the right gadget, the capability to produce audio video clips,
still image, and able to upload it to any social media online can be considered
a media user. Person that is able to manipulate, enjoy and satisfy self from
the likes of it belongs to this categorization. Teenagers are among the
multitude of social media users. Some of them opt to do blogging and
vlogging due to ease putting oneself into it. Having done so, these people
must acquire at least the minimum knowledge and attitude to own up such a
significant endeavor to level up the trade.

Characteristics of Responsible Media User

A responsible user and competent producer of media and information
should have these characteristics:
• Must be Curious
• General knowledge
• The ability to write
• Professionalism
• Objective
• Should have Ethics.

Must be Curious Those who release information into the public from any
platform should have a natural curiosity. Being a curious creator, be a truth
seeker. Ask tough and important questions. Gather more information. Be
detail oriented.

General Knowledge Having a general knowledge of different topics permits

one to be more confident in whatever he or she is releasing to the public.
They know that the information is correct and prepares them for any dispute
that could arise.

The Ability to Write The ability to write has to do more with the success of
information distribution. Any faults in writing may cause your potential
reader to lose interest and move to another article. The ability to hold your
reader’s attention is very important if you want to get your point across and
this is where writing skills play a part.

Professionalism and Should Have Ethics Professionalism covers many

grounds, it includes objectivity and ethics. Being a professional means, you
are doing what is expected of you, in this case as a provider of correct
information. This can only be achieved by maintaining objectivity which is
easier said than done since we are all prone to taking a side. This is why we
need a firm grip on our values when it comes to information dissemination. A
producer of information would have to stop and ask himself what kind of
person he is and act upon it. This is where ethics play a large part in whether
what is released to the public is the truth, half-truths or lies.

Objective Information today comes from everywhere; it is driven by

advertising which could blur the truth in many cases. It is up to the users or
receivers of information to arm themselves with the knowledge to verify
what is out there
