Bring your wonder and imagination as we embark on a media literacy education journey! Unsure about the role of media literacy in early learning? Let’s unpack your questions together. Join PBS KIDS and Dr. Faith Rogow, early childhood media literacy expert and author of Media Literacy for Young Children: Teaching Beyond the Screen Time Debates, on an exploration of the goals, skills, and knowledge needed to teach media literacy in the early years. You will investigate how to support children to apply inquiry and reflection skills as they communicate with media today and as digital citizens of the future. Early childhood educators from around the country will share lesson plan ideas and practical tips for weaving developmentally-appropriate media literacy practices into what you’re already doing. Your journey doesn’t end here! We will leave you with a digital goodie bag, filled with PBS KIDS teaching resources and media, to pack away for your next media literacy education adventure.
