This cropped up on my LinkedIn feed from Tactical Tech and Ifigured some folks here might be interested in getting involved.

European Schoolnet seek teachers of primary or secondary education in Europe to participate in a session on effective strategies & resources to increase media literacy among young people.

The co-development session:

The online co-development session (of 90 minutes) will be very interactive. First, the participants will learn about the project and the co-development session in a short plenary. Next, the participants will be redirected into breakout rooms where they will discuss in smaller groups their experiences with media literacy education, or their knowledge about existing media literacy programs, tools, and resources. After several interactive activities the participants will gather in the plenary to present their outcomes of each breakout room.

More about the MLCE project:

1. Be teaching in a European country.

2. Teach children and young people in primary, secondary and higher education (until the age of 19 years old).

Express your interest to participate in the session by filling in this application form.

After participating in the co-development session, the participants will be offered the fully funded opportunity to participate in the Media Literacy Champion Training-of-Trainers course for teachers which will take place in Brussels in the spring/early summer of 2024.

More about the MLCE project:

The Media Literacy Case for Educators project is an EU-funded project that aims to sustainably scale Media Literacy in Europe and to empower teachers, educators and librarians across Europe to be innovative, future-fit advocates of Media Literacy. As one of the first steps in the project, online exchanges are organised with educators, young people and ministers of Education to better understand effective methods to enhance media literacy among young people.

The project is coordinated by Tactical Tech in cooperation with European Schoolnet (EUN), Save the Children Italy and International Federation of Library Associations (NL).
