Teacher Education in Media and Information Literacy – Initial Investigations Report

The TeaMLit: Teacher Education in Digital and Media Literacy: Providing Guidance, Resources and Support for Teacher Trainers in Europe project, funded by the European Media and Information Fund (EMIF), launched its first – in a series of 3 – reports based on the conducted research, which spans in the period of 18 months between January 2023 and June 2024. The report discusses main findings from five regions and countries – Ireland, Portugal, Belgium-Flanders, the German-speaking Community in Belgium and the Baden-Württemberg Land in Germany – as well as an international review. The main aim of the report is to thoroughly map, frame and analyse current practices, barriers and opportunities in initial and in-service teacher training and continuing professional development in media and information literacy (MIL).
