Abstract

In light of the lack of quality and quantity of national media products for children, there is a large and growing demand for translated foreign media content for children, which raises the issue of the values and potential negative effects of media translation. The study aims to investigate the extent of the impact of translated media content on children's values, culture and academic achievement, and the role that media education can play in protecting them from the potential negative effects of this translation. The study adopts the descriptive-analytical approach appropriate for this type of study. The study recommends the formation of national cadres who are interested and aware of the importance of translating media content for children, as well as the importance of teaching media education and emphasising active parental education in guiding and following up on children.
