MCTE Fall Workshop 2019 featuring RENEE HOBBS!
Pleasure, Presentation, and Power:
Digital Media and Critical Literacy
"There is a robust spirit of experimentation now underway in K-12 schools, as elementary and secondary educators discover how to introduce these [media literacy] competencies to children and youth...We have come a long way, baby! Now practitioners, advocates, artists, media professionals, community leaders and researchers from a wide range of fields – including education, communication and media studies, psychology, public health and more – have implemented a vast number of projects large and small in a variety of school- and non-school contexts, documenting their work and beginning to contribute to a knowledge base of best practices."
