If students are not trained to ask basic questions about the images which confront them, if they are not asked to examine the knowledge and assumptions which they already possess, they are being denied the opportunity to develop the most simple and essential critical tools.

I heard Barrie speak at one of the US media literacy conferences and immediately began to secure everything he wrote. I still have on my shelf the excellent text "Real Images Film & Television." He has had a tremendous impact on education in Australia and beyond. He was appropriately honored with the NTC lifetime achievement award.
