Media Literacy and Media Education Online

Cross-posted at ThinkTime.

April is Literacy Education Advocacy Month, sponsored by the National Council of Teachers of English.

What is "literacy advocacy"? Check out NCTE's advocacy calendar for March and April 2009. I like how it breaks down advocacy into manageable steps for the novice agitator, er, I mean advocate. Each day on the calendar contains a small, simple act we can perform to gently persuade our colleagues, legislators, and education stakeholders about the NCTE 2009 legislative platform.

You can start being an advocate by simply reviewing the calendar. Check it out!
