Abstract
Media education is an educational subject whose parent fields are not firmly defined. It is located at the intersection of subjects like pedagogy, media studies, film science, aesthetics, sociology, psychology and other humanities and social disciplines. The aim of the research was to determine the influence of various factors on the perception of media education among teachers. 600 teachers participated in the research, and the research tool was a self-designed questionnaire. It was divided into several parts, with the media part containing 12 items focused on the perception of education. The multiple regression model was used as the statistical method for the identification of significant factors. Also, Pearson’s correlation coefficient and a student t-test were used for the identification of a significant relationship and whether the use of different methods and forms had a significant effect on media education perception. The length of teaching experience, the benefits of media education in the areas of knowledge, abilities and skills, as well as the last variable – receptive circles, were shown to be significant factors. Higher implementation of media education into the school subjects would be beneficial for every participant of the teaching process.
