Use of Media in Education
Towards the Era of Digital Fluency
Brussels (BE), April 2010 - The Media & Learning Conference on 25-26 November 2010 is being organised in collaboration with the Flemish Ministry of Education and the European Commission Directorate-General for Education and Culture. It will take place in the Flemish Ministry of Education Headquarters in Brussels to coincide with the beginning of the Belgian Presidency of the European Union.
The Conference will further take place alongside the MEDEA Awards, an annual awards scheme that recognises and rewards excellence in the use of media in education and training. It will bring together practitioners and policy makers in a two-day event that will highlight the latest developments, services, and digital and media competences in education and training.
The conference agenda will focus on three key themes:
- digital and media skills and competences
- fostering the creation of media-based resources at all levels of education and training
- the use and reuse of existing media resources in education and training
Interested individuals, project teams, institutions, and organisations are invited to submit proposals to give presentations, demonstrations, and workshops at this conference. The closing date for submissions is 01 June 2010.
