When you arrive in Minneapolis for the AEJMC conference, consider joining us at the Symposium on Youth Media and Digital Citizenship, a pre-conference event on the afternoon of Wednesday, August 3 (12 noon to 4:30 p.m.). The symposium, which will start with lunch, is free and open to all AEJMC conference attendees. It will take place in Murphy Hall, home of the School of Journalism and Mass Communication at the University of Minnesota (a short train ride from the Hilton).
The goal of the symposium is to learn about and discuss emerging research on youth media and citizenship. We will hear from a number of youth-and-media researchers who work the field of education, and from expert secondary journalism teachers.
The Symposium is co-sponsored by the University of Minnesota School of Journalism and Mass Communication and by the National Scholastic Press Association (NSPA), a Minneapolis-based nonprofit that, along with its Associated Collegiate Press division (ACP) provides education and recognition programs to student journalists from middle school to college.
