Purpose of this Website
|
| This website was originally developed at the request of graduate students who attended the 1998 media literacy summer session Media Literacy: From Television to Telling-Vision. It was intended to serve as a means for maintaining communication among these classroom teachers, media specialists and technology coordinators as they return to their schools and begin the task of implementing some of the techniques and concepts they experienced during the class.

|
Since our introduction of the nation's only masters program in Media Literacy in 1999, the website has taken on a broader issue-based approach, intended to promote Media Literacy in an interdisciplinary manner.
