ME scholars and educators increasingly share the view that ME should be developed as a key transversal component across the school curriculum rather than a specific subject or topic. To achieve so, however, it is crucial to devote specific attention to curriculum development and practice in order to have a clear idea of the learning progression through different school levels with details of specific learning outcomes and criteria and procedures for evaluation and assessment.
It’s why through this fourth module, a theoretical background is given to reflect about the location of Media Education in the school curriculum before suggesting some questions for planning cross-curriculum media education lessons (Unit 1). In a second step, various frameworks and tools are presented for supporting the evaluation of these media education lesson (Unit 2).
