A blog about Information Literacy and related issues. I've been writing an Info Lit blog since 2006, mainly just posting about activities I'm involved with and useful snippets of info I come across. I hope you find it of interest, if so, I'd love to hear from you!

UNESCO course on Media and Information Literacy
I see that UNESCO has launched a free online course that supports Media and
Information Literacy and Intercultural Dialogue. "The course which
is designed for teachers, policy makers and professionals will be
offered over 13 weeks, from February 25 to May 31, 2013 and will be led
by the Queensland University of Technology (QUT) in Australia." The blurb says "The online course is part of UNESCO’s strategy to foster media and
information literacy in societies and will focus on the following
subjects: Intercultural dialogue and citizenship; freedom of expression,
freedom of information and understanding the news; representation and
languages in media and information; advertising and
citizenship; information literacy and library skills; communication; MIL
and teaching/learning; MIL policies and strategies; citizens and the
media and technologies; global media/technologies in an increasingly
connected world; and Internet opportunities and challenges."

The obvious distinction with conventional and internet based degrees will be the place. As opposed to a conventional degree obtained in college campus, on the web degrees offer you versatility in specific location. Because of this, somebody will be able to enroll in universities they don't have entry to as a consequence of geographical constraints. You've Got To See This for more details.

ReplyDeleteYou actually make it look so easy with your performance but I find this matter to be actually something which I think I would never comprehend. It seems too complicated and extremely broad for me. I'm looking forward for your next post, I’ll try to get the hang of it! David Hoffmeister blog
