[bestbits] What about promoting media and information literacy?

[Becky Lentz, Dr.]

Dear Colleagues,

There is an emerging international group of scholars working explicitly on this issue, some in partnership with members of this community.  If you're interested in sharing your own needs, stories, work, and even interest in collaboration related to media/info/tech policy literacy, please email me off-list so as not to clutter this forum with details about this and also forthcoming publications/articles/workshops. In the meantime, here's a related blogpost featuring an extract of some of this research on US policy advcoacy capacity building: http://oti.newamerica.net/blogposts/2013/beneath_the_glitz_of_digital_activism-93204

best,
