Module 4:Media literacy through the co-education school-families

Co-educate young children to media through a teachers-parents partnership

Welcome!

In this module, we will focus on co-education, more specifically media literacy through the co-education school-families. With our project we aim to create an educational bridge between schools and families at the benefits of the children. Challenges related to digital media are at the crossroads of school and family. Working there together and putting the young child at the center of the collaboration, is a way to provide him with good benchmarks to evolve critically in a hyper-connected world.

What is co-education about?
As a teacher, how can I reach parents, collaborate with them, involve them?
