Announcements


Project New Media Literacies a research initiative within MIT's Comparative Media Studies program. Our central goal is to engage educators and learners in today's participatory culture. It is our belief that young people need to both make and reflect upon media and in the process, acquire important skills in team work, leadership, problem solving, collaboration, brainstorming, communications, and creating projects.

students.

provide us a basis for evaluating and understanding the impact of our work.
