The ISCTE-IUL, Lisbon in association with the European project MediaCoach Initiative is pleased to announce a call for proposals for the Conference “Media literacy in a media-rich ecology”, which will be held December 4, 2019 (Wednesday), at the ISCTE-IUL, Portugal.
Concerning the theme: Media literacy in a media-rich ecology
As the current digitally mediated environment becomes an ever more substantial means through which individuals structure their personal and social lives, it is increasingly important that we understand the complex nature of the media ecology. The media permeates virtually all domains of the lives of citizens, embedded in domestic and social lives, education and training, work and leisure. Though it offers plenty of opportunities in all these areas, it also poses challenges at the personal and societal levels. Given the fast pace of technological change, the increase of media-literate individuals is an essential goal. This environment also prompts a renewed effort to conceptualize, measure and disseminate media literacy worldwide, posing its own challenges for research and policy.
This conference wants not only to reach the scholar community interested in digital and media literacy, but also to encourage non-profit organisations and activists working on media literacy related initiatives to join us in discussion.
There will be three panels with the following topics:
1 – Digital literacy related activism and non-profit Organisations
2 – New digital devices, new challenges in media literacy?
3 – Digital literacy and Policy
