It's almost November and this year's Media Literacy Week is fast approaching. There are events planned across Canada (you can see a list here), but the one I'm most excited about is going to take place on November 10 at the NFB, Toronto with the Association for Media Literacy  (details below). I hope that you will join us for a wonderful evening of fantastic films and interactive, hands-on learning!

Media Literacy Education and NFB Innovations

Toronto’s Mediatheque has provided teachers with great teaching opportunities for years, and now the NFB is raising the bar!

As part of Media Literacy Week, join the Association for Media Literacy and the National Film Board’s outreach staff for a Wine and appetizer reception. 

Enjoy previews and hands-on try-outs of NFB’s new K – 12 production opportunities, remote online bookmarking, interactive sites, projects that promote both digital literacy and subject knowledge, and custom iPad app.

Be guided by veteran media literacy teachers in identifying and implementing media literacy education opportunities in each innovation.
