Abstract | Describes an instructional activity to teach middle school through college students how to critically analyze health-related infomercial messages and content; identify techniques commonly used in infomercials to persuade customers to purchase products; identify how and why these techniques can be misleading and unreliable; and discuss benefits and drawbacks to health-related infomercials. The activity uses the inductive process to teach students the relevance of media literacy in their lives. (SM) |
