In the XXI century it is impossible to organize and provide education bypassing or without using the products of technological progress. The article deals with the problems of media literacy of modern youth and ways to resolve the effects of media and Internet resources on the quality and level of education of future students. The research work aims to investigate the variability of media resources and their influence on schoolchildren and the awareness of future students. The methodological approach to this research represents the search and analysis of theoretical sources of American and Kyrgyz origin, aimed at the study of media literacy among the social stratum of students, applicants for higher education, and other members of society. Theoretical (analysis, systematization, and synthesis of scientific sources) and empirical (retrospective analysis) research methods were used to examine the issue of media literacy. Using the method of theoretical analysis, the peculiarities of the interpretation of the issues and development of media literacy were studied and using the method of systematization and generalization, the scientific sources devoted to the issue of digital awareness of the population were investigated. In the article, using retrospective analysis, literary sources on media literacy were collected and systematized. The research study analyzed the main issues of media literacy of the population and identified trends of development from theoretical framework to practical application. This article has practical relevance for students and teachers who are faced with the problem of insufficient media literacy and a basis for further research on this issue.
