The study investigates the Finnish youth’s media use and different types of media-related literacies at home and at school. The study concerns the media education sector, and media ethnography is applied to the investigation of school of media experiences and literacy practices in the Tampere region. Wider surveys on the youth’s use of media in different locations, such as in schools and at home, are conducted to further complement the research. The analysis will produce basic information about young people’s use of media, as well as more in-depth information about various literacy practices and media use at home, at school and in everyday life.
