Topics

The 21st century information ecosystem composed of highly fragmented media environments—both online and offline— poses tremendous challenges for individuals as they seek accurate and credible information. This 2-day public workshop will specifically focus on helping children and youth navigate rapidly changing online spaces. It will bring together educators, curriculum developers, researchers, program providers, and associations and organizations to explore promising practices and programs and identify current educational needs for supporting the development of media literacy in the context of a complex information ecosystem.
