National Association of Media Literacy Education (NAMLE) Conference Convenes

I am sure there are many who wish they could be here, in Detroit, attending the National Association of Media Literacy Education's (NAMLE) annual conference. Saturday, I had the good fortune to be joined by Bill Kist, chair of the NCTE Commission on Media, for a day-long workshop on New Literacies and Media Literacy. Our agenda, and other materials can be found here. Last night, three
organizations were honored with Media Literacy Awards. A press release on those awards is due to be released soon. Renee Hobbs blogged about NAMLE president Sherri Hope Culver's welcome. David Kleeman also blogged about the talk.
I also presented Visual Literacy: Looking At Images In Journalism and Popular Culture. I have posted the PowerPoint here.
