    Additional Information on the Advanced Certificate in Media Literacy Course

     

    The National Directory for Catechesis (1995) lists five ways catechists are to bridge faith and culture with media:

    1. Become media literate
    2. Make popular media the subject of catechesis
    3. Use media in catechesis
    4. Advocate for authentic media in the public sphere
    5. Produce media in every parish

    Media literacy education is an educational and faith formation imperative for the 21st century.

    Final deadline for registration is June 15, 2024
