Abstract

This article summarises the findings from an evaluation of a Media Literacy course at the University of Barcelona. It focuses on some aspects of Self‐Regulation and on the learning environment used by students. The students’ learning processes were embedded in an eLearning project, in which students analysed the representation of immigrants and ethnic minorities in the media.Key findings are the usefulness of this particular Technology‐Enhanced Learning Environment (TELE), and its specific settings regarding Self‐Regulated Learning (SRL). Students self‐regulated their learning processes, in that they were working in a blended learning environment. However, their acquired media literacy skills seem to be fostered by the TELE rather than by the self‐regulation mechanisms.Throughout the article, special attention is paid to the conceptual framework of digital and media literacy, and the specific competences related to them.
