On January 13 – 14, 2023, the media literacy community will gather for NMLC23, the 16th Annual Northeast Media Literacy Conference! This online conference is organized around the theme of RESISTING THE FRAME. Join us for a webinar where we share our planning process for this conference and preview some of the unique features of this special event. Conference organizers Michelle Ciccone and Iglika Ivanova will describe their plans for the conference and lead a discussion on how the unique features of the program support an ongoing, multidisciplinary, and global learning community.
Come meet author Mark Kurlansky, author of “Big Lies: From Socrates to Plato,” and educators from across the globe and share your thoughts on big lies from history! “Educator Voice” is not your typical webinar. First, it’s a live Zoom conversation where teachers (a.k.a. the experts!) are also the guests alongside well, our guest! It’s recorded and highlights appear online. We ask that you turn on your screens since we are our proud of the work teachers do, and believe fully in the need of showing it off and sharing how smart, courageous and amazing educators and school staff are. Our guests come on because they WANT to hear directly from teachers/staff and what they are going through currently trying to help students learn and make the world a better place. All are welcome, but you get the boot if you are disrespectful. Mark Kulansky, journalist and best-selling author, is not to be missed. You will have fun and he will make you laugh and think.
