Re: media analysis/production curriculum

Terry,

I know that Horace Mann School has been at the forefront of Media Literacy instruction. They even renamed their Technology Department to include Media. Adam Kenner is their Director of Technology.

Much of their work has been inspired (initially at least) from the New Mexico New Media Association.
