Conference Overview

The NAMLE Conference Mission
2011 NAMLE Conference Logo

NAMLE’s leadership role in organizing and convening professional development conferences in the field of media literacy education is unparalleled.  Through NAMLE’s biennial conference, contacts and networks emerge, promising practices are disseminated, future projects are conceived and the field grows.

NAMLE convenes media literacy educators and leaders every two years to expand the knowledge and practice of media literacy education in the United States. The 2011 NAMLE Conference was held in Philadelphia, PA, July 22-25. The program included the Modern Media Makers (M3), Media Literacy Media Awards, and Digital Poster sessions, as well as a wide array of presenters and keynotes.

As a membership organization, NAMLE celebrates the increased diversity of voices, pedagogies and technologies that comprise the growing field of media literacy education. We seek to facilitate media literacy education among an increasingly broad constituency that includes children, families and adults of all ages, academic researchers, P-16 teachers, teacher educators, art educators, community leaders, media producers, non-profit partners, faith-based groups, pediatricians and other health professionals. For the 2011 conference program we anticipate a rich mix of conversation, presentation and hands-on engagement with a variety of media and technologies.

Excellent paper submissions will be considered for publication in the Journal of Media Literacy Education.
