Conference Papers

MES2020 invites presentations of research/ practice in the broad fields of media education, media / digital literacy and media / technology in education. These papers should share the outcomes of research / practitioner enquiry, raising questions for the audience to discuss. Presentations are typically 15-20 minutes in length, forming part of a parallel session of 3 or 4 papers.

We are now accepting abstracts of no more than 200 words (excluding references). Your abstract should be double-space and in Arial font no less than size 12. Submissions can be made in either a Word document or in RTF format.

The abstract must include:

• A title of no more than 15 words which provides useful pointers on the key topics to be discussed;
• A list of references at the end (a maximum of 5 texts and no fewer than 2 texts)
• Five key words;
• A short biography of a maximum of 35 words.

MES Conversations

This strand of the conference offers a different, more interactive platform for the exchange of research, practice and innovation in the broad fields of media education, media / digital literacy and media / technology in education. MES conversations are given more time than standard presentations (typically two per parallel session) and can take the form of a seminar discussion, screening or other showcasing of work, demonstration, panel, workshop or roundtable, but we are open to other proposals.
