Workshop modules include lectures on the effects of media, methods of critical evaluation and understanding media messages.

Teachers interested in addressing cross-curricular issues involving media literacy and in studies covering democratic societies, peace and sustainable development are encouraged to apply. Moreover, teachers who apply methods aimed at developing self-confidence, initiative, problem-solving and stimulating student creativity are also encouraged to apply.
