 We are supposed to be talking about an aspect of mediliteracy. Really? Which component of mediliteracy? To translate. What do you think they mean by that? Well, let's brainstorm. What possible meanings could there be? How about translating from one language to another? Or, I don't know, maybe translating from Morse code to English? Um, I don't think that is necessarily what they have in mind. How often do people use Morse code? How about translating an idea from one format to another? Or translating information in some way to reach a different audience? Those sound possible. And interesting too. I think we do this all the time, but we don't consciously think about it. If we really thought about this, we might present information in ways that were more understandable. Right. For example, I might learn something very complex in my box, anatomy course. When I tell my friends who don't know much about box anatomy, I make the information easier for them to understand. And how do you do that? I might simplify the information, or use analogies to topics they know more about. Yeah. And sometimes I translate just for myself. I think in a very visual way. Sometimes, I read a description about a place, and I have to sketch it so I can really see it. I wonder if others can come up with a couple more ideas about how to translate information in connection with being mediliterate. Let's put out a challenge. What can you come up with?
