This article discusses how communication and learning through dialogue and creative practice can be fostered with social interac-tion and dialogic processes generated through participatory pho-tography workshops, in order to contribute to media literacy. Similar to other creative experiences of this kind, this is not only a space to share products, jobs, tips and techniques, but also one for social interaction and communication. Educators in the field of media literacy can find, unprecedented challenges and opportuni-ties in these initiatives to take advantage of the body of knowledge of adolescents and promote learning.engAtribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 Españahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/Media literacyParticipatory photographyTeenagerjournal article10.7821/naer.2015.1.96open access
