On July 16, 2024, the Teachers 4.0 Digital project will be presented at the XXXIII Summer School of Media Education in Modena, Italy. The Summer School, this year entitled to Artificial Intelligence Winters and Springs – Between educational opportunities and regulation is organized by the Italian Association for Media Education (MED).
The MED is a non-profit organization established in 1996 in Rome by a group of university professors, school teachers, and media professionals to promote research, study, and experimentation in the field of media education, media studies, and pedagogy, both at school and community level so that young people, as well as adults, may develop the capacity to interact critically and reflexively with the current complex social-cultural environment they live in.
One of the most important initiatives organized by the Association since 1996 is the Summer School where every year national and international scholars, school teachers and educators, students, and media professionals meet and confront each other about the issues and concerns regarding the promotion of active citizenship through Media Education. The Teachers 4.0 Digital project will be presented during a dedicated parallel session of the Summer School by Prof. Gianna Cappello, President of the National Board of the MED and Coordinator of the project for the University of Palermo, and by Paola Macaluso, National Board Member, and PhD student at the University of Palermo.
Teachers 4.0 Digital empowers teachers in primary and secondary schools across Europe to promote digital [media] literacy and to tackle disinformation in their classrooms. The project offers a large-scale capacity-building activity for initial training and continuous professional development of teachers and educators with focus on Bulgaria, Cyprus, Greece, Italy, Poland and Romania.
