Shout Media Education Boosts Student Engagement and Retention

Shout media education (or as it’s often referred to, shout music) is the use of video, audio or interactive content to improve student learning. It can be a highly effective way to boost student engagement and retention of key learning objectives.

The best shout media education is one that combines traditional classroom teaching with digital content to improve student learning while engaging the students’ interest and enhancing their ability to retain knowledge over time. It also helps teachers to stay engaged with their students, which in turn enables them to teach more effectively.

Educating the students on media literacy is critical for many reasons, including the need to understand how information and news are made, distributed and received. It also allows them to make informed decisions about their own use of the internet, social media and other media.

The most effective media education programs are designed to engage the student’s attention, keep it focused on the content being delivered and encourage students to think critically about what they’re reading or watching. This can help to ensure that all students gain the necessary skills for lifelong learning.

For the most part, these media education tools are free, or at least inexpensive to implement. However, if you do decide to invest in your students’ media literacy education you should do so with care.

Most school districts are in the midst of a budget crunch, and the cuts have already had a significant impact on classrooms, administrators and teachers alike. For example, the Quakertown School District in Pennsylvania cut its librarians by 30% last year. This reduction in library services resulted in an inordinate number of students missing out on critical reading and research materials, and a significant drop in test scores overall.

To combat this, the Quakertown School District launched a Tweet contest aimed at encouraging their staff to share a positive story about their district every week with the use of the hashtag, #QuakertownTweets. A total of 300 tweets were sent out over the course of five days.
