The silence of humans is threatened by various types of noise. They are enhanced by in-adequate reception of media messages. Therefore, studies on media education should also involve an investigation of the relation between the human mediosphere and threats to si-lence. Behaviour that diminishes the sphere of silence in the human environment or even eliminates it entirely is a harmful act. Consequently, it is proposed that media education should always involve a reflection on the ethical assessment of silence in the human envi-ronment, with particular reference to the factors that constitute a threat to silence. The first part of the paper presents silence as a positive value. The second part discusses the ethical aspects of silence. Conclusions and suggestions with regard to media education make up the third part of the article. The paper aims to draw attention to silence viewed as a positive value as well as to the ethical aspects of silence in education for media and in structuring galenosphere, i.e. the sphere of silence. The discussion of the relevant issues points to a need for research on the condition of silence in the human social environment and its role in media education.
