Media education in terms of language learning using the example of teaching French

The aim o f the thesis is to elaborate the methods o f education o f future teachers in the field o f reception and analysis o f media texts (especially o f the printed media). Even if the school subject media education in the Czech republic has been newly introduced (as well as frequently discussed), the present topic did not find a due place in the curricula at the faculties o f education (preparing the teachers for secondary schools, in particular for grammar schools). The media education may be considered either as a particular school subject or as a component o f relative school subjects, e. g. o f mother or foreign language teaching, civics, history etc. Its contents includes a large scale o f topics - media institutions, functioning o f media channels and media market, critical reading o f media texts, analysis o f the forms o f media manipulation and stereotypes, publicity etc. It is mostly this interdisciplinary approach which situates the media education within the wider picture o f a rather complex study o f language acquisition.
