AERA Annual Conference
The Media Education Lab founded in 2003 by Professor Renee Hobbs to improve the practice of media literacy education through scholarship and community service. We offer professional development and curriculum resources on all aspects of media literacy education, as it is practiced in and out of schools.Â
The Media Education Lab also researches the best practices of media literacy education and conducts program evaluation to measure the impact of teaching media literacy using a multidisciplinary research agenda.
Since the Media Education Lab is not a place but a community of learners, many educators and college teachers (as well as graduate students and scholars) join our global network to increase their knowledge and practice.
