NCATE and NCTE Standards

After reading a few standards, I realize that I have not yet had to compose anything besides papers and essays and maybe a power point project. I know how to respond to different types of media but I do not have experience with creating my own "media." I have helped students with reading comprehension and writing of print texts, but I have not helped students with non-print texts.
I am excited to learn how to engage students in critical analysis of different media. But first I need to learn how to use these different types of media myself. I certainly would not want to teach something that I have not at least tried myself!
