[Commlist] Call for Presentation | NMLC - The Future of Media education Post-Pandemic

The Future of Media Education Post-Pandemic

Call for scholarly presentations at the NMLC Online gathering on 
November 6-7, 2020

DEADLINE: *_September 7_*

While we are in the midst of the global health pandemic, with the 
consequent economic crisis and increased calls for social justice, the 
Northeast Media Literacy Conference would like to invite the media 
education community to submit academic presentations on the effect of 
the pandemic on best practices as well as the impact of the physical 
isolation and remote engagement on the future of media education.

We define media education as including any learning process 
(formal/informal/connected learning/third space) that involves either 
analyzing media or/and producing media. In contrast to educational 
technology, online or blended learning, we look for proposals 
highlighting the process of media practice to enhance learners’ 
abilities to access information and tools; analyze media representation, 
revealing the power dynamics behind systems, structures and concepts; 
create meaningful media messages; reflect on media use; be socially 
responsible and advance society toward the common good.

We welcome proposals, using qualitative, quantitative, mixed methods, 
and critical cultural approaches, from multidisciplinary educators 
around the world who have experience in teaching media education during 
this pandemic. Following a peer reviewed process, the accepted proposals 
will be scheduled to engage in a real time video conference presentation 
as an intercultural dialogue. The dialogue would be the basis of a 
larger discussion at the conference regarding the future of media 
education as a result of the pandemic. Presenters will be encouraged to 
submit full papers as chapter proposals (4,000-6,000 words including 
references using APA style) of an upcoming edited book. All submissions 
must be original work and have not been previously published. (Note: 
acceptance to the conference does not guarantee acceptance as a chapter 
for the edited book).

To submit a proposal,please complete this proposal by September 7
