2. MIND OVER MEDIA 

Strange as it may seem, it is the only event at NCTE 2018 with the word "propaganda" in the title! There’s never been a more important time to analyze contemporary propaganda. Explore Mind Over Media, a crowdsourced digital platform with thousands of examples of propaganda. Use the power of online learning to promote face-to-face dialogue and discussion that promotes intellectual curiosity.

DATE: Sunday, November 18, 2018

TIME: 10:30 - 11:45

LOCATION: Brown Convention Center, Houston, Room 372
