How does the new Digital Literacy and Citizenship curriculum work with the existing parent media education program?
The new curriculum has parent resources, such as videos, tip sheets, and parent/kid homework activities, integrated into each unit. Schools may also choose to offer additional information to parents using the tip sheets, discussion guides, and presentations that are part of the Parent Media Education program. The parent program offers information on topics such as sex and media, advertising, and making media choices, which are not explicitly covered by the Digital Literacy and Citizenship curriculum.
