Lesson Plan

Media Smarts: Lesson: Representing Ourselves Online

Curated by ACT

In this lesson, learners talk about dressing up and taking on identities that are similar to or different from them. They are then introduced to the idea of avatars as a kind of "dressing up" inside video games and consider the ways in which the technical, generic and aesthetic limitations on avatar creation and customization affect their choices and their ability to represent themselves online.
