Abstract

Disabilities concerning mass communications media is an important subject of enquiry for several reasons: because of the influencing role the mass media play in shaping social images; because it raises the awareness of the people to the problems of disadvantaged groups; and as an insightful didactic resource to be used in teacher training for critical-analytical purposes. Mainly with reference to the latter, we aim to show a practical approach carried out with students at the Teacher Training College of the University of Burgos.
