Call For Papers

The symposium will convene leaders from four decades of media literacy to discuss the field’s historical frameworks and to engage the next generation of researchers and practitioners in exploring how the past informs the present and future of the field.

The history of media literacy is the story of people’s efforts to develop the knowledge and skills necessary to respond to changing media environments in order to participate and claim power in societies where media and technology play increasingly important roles in education, family life, social relations, public health, politics, economics, the arts and sciences, and popular culture.

Submit a proposal (abstract only, 250–300 words) for a 15–20 minute presentation related to some aspect of the history of media literacy.
Accepted presenters will be invited to submit a scholarly article for publication in a forthcoming special issue of the Journal of Media Literacy Education (www.jmle.org).

Proposals due by June 14, 2013. Submit Now

You will be notified by July 1, 2013.
