*STRANDS OF FOCUS:*

*/_Strand 1_/*/: /*Media Literacy & Information Literacy*

General strand open to anyone who is interested in discussing where 
media/information literacy education exists in their part of the world.

*/_Strand 2:_/**Media Literacy in Practice (For Practitioners) *

Teacher? Educator? Learner? This strand is for you. Engage practitioners 
and educators in teaching or learning about best media literacy 
education practices for the classroom. Submissions can be for practice 
at elementary, secondary or higher education. Please specify your 
audience in the proposal.

*/_Strand 3:_/**Techno Ecosystems/TechnoMorality*

  * Ethics & the Media
  * Spirituality & Theology or Theological Perspectives
  * Ecosystems & EcoMedia Literacy
  * Data & Privacy
There are a number of ecosystems at play with the work of media literacy 
education. Are you in the ecomedia literacy/sustainability model? Where 
do ethics and morality play in the work of technology as it exists? How 
does data and privacy fit into the mold?  How does theology play into 
its own ecosystem which helps with the function of the world? This 
strand is open to researchers, practitioners, religious and non-profits 
that’s work can be found in these spaces.

*/_Strand 4:_/**Futures & AI–Where are we Going?*

The world is changing much faster with the availability of generative 
AI.How has that changed or evolved the work of media literacy education? 
What is the future? Can we predict it based on and using a media 
literacy lens? This strand is open to those who are thinking about where 
we are heading as well as how media literacy is a part of the ongoing 
technological changes.

*/_Strand 5:_/**History of Media Literacy*

It has been argued that media literacy research and practice is 
continually focused on the present moment, with a historical foundation 
that is nearly absent. We seek to bring together scholars and 
practitioners who can help us better understand the historical 
trajectories of media literacy education around the world. This strand 
aims to bring together media literacy scholars and practitioners to lend 
a historical perspective to the complexity of the field and provide 
histories of past challenges as we face the challenges of today and 
tomorrow.
