Signature commbox: 10:EDU-Training

"This is a practical handbook for those who are interested in teaching Media Education to different groups. It condenses the major concepts in Media Education and contextualises them amply. It is designed in a systematic way, leading the learner through awareness, analysis (reflection) and action. The book will definitely incite the creativity of its users, to make learning an interesting activity. However, it does not substitute any textbook on the subject, nor the basic training required to handle the subject." (Publisher description)
