In this digital era, students learn via different channels and media, and are susceptible to different sources of influence. Media and information literacy (MIL) equips students with the ability to locate, evaluate and understand media and information in various forms. With MIL, students are able to use information critically and create solutions effectively. In order to further support schools to promote MIL, the Education Bureau collaborates with the Journalism Education Foundation (JEF) to organise a series of teacher training courses from March to July 2021. For details, please refer to the website http://www.jef.org.hk/eng/.
