Regional Training of Trainers’ Workshop on a Draft Teacher Training Curricula for Media and Information Literacy

UNESCO is dedicated to enhance media literacy and civic participation in media, and is therefore holding a Regional Training of Trainers’ Workshop on a Draft Teacher Training Curricula for Media and Information Literacy at the Groenkloof Campus of the University of Pretoria, which will started on the afternoon of 3 November to 6 November 2009.
This project intends to enrich teacher-training curricula with media and information literacy components on a pilot basis in developing countries, and to synthesize and share the experience with a view to enhancing teachers’ abilities to impart media and information literacy to school children and use this in the teaching-learning process.

Considering the linkage between communication, information and education, this project hopes to enhance relevant educational theory and practice, through collaborative work and new forms of evaluation.
