Proposals are invited for papers for a special issue of the Journal of Media Literacy Education on the theme of Media Literacy Education for All Ages. The call is open for the international Media Education Conference 2019 (MEC 2019) participants and scholars who don’t intend to attend the MEC conference in Salla, Finland, in April 2019. MEC is a small, informal conference, where participants exchange ideas and information on media literacy education, particularly the roles of media in teaching, learning, society, and psychosocial well-being across all ages. MEC is organized by the Faculty of Education’s Centre for Media Pedagogy at the University of Lapland, Finland.
The Journal of Media Literacy Education provides a forum for established and emerging scholars, media professionals, and educational practitioners in and outside schools. An extended conceptualization of literacy, media literacy education helps individuals of all ages develop the habits of inquiry and skills of expression needed to become critical thinkers, effective communicators, and active citizens in a world where mass media, popular culture, and digital technologies play important roles for individuals and society.
