What is media literacy? The National Association for Media Literacy Education (NAMLE) defines media literacy as "The ability to access, analyze, evaluate, create, and act using all forms of communication." (https://namle.net/resources/media-literacy-defined/) Since 2014, NAMLE has been sponsoring Media Literacy Week. This year, it is from October 27 - 31 and each day during the week will focus on one aspect of the above definition. For information and links to content and lesson ideas, click on the banners below.
