Purpose

The purpose of this DeCAL is to inform and educate students about the media’s desensitizing effects on their views of men, women, children, sex and violence. By examining media content and different forms of media, ranging from advertisements, TV, magazines, movies, music and video games, we will examine how the media manipulates and distorts our attitudes, emotions and values.
