THIS BLOG IS NO LONGER BEING UPDATED.
Hello All!
This blog is the new version of The ReView, IVLA's (International Visual Literacy Association) newsletter, now digital and online! Our intention is to have our newsletter more agile, and at the same time, open for everyone's contributions. Yes, your contributions are welcome, for any section.
As mentioned earlier, Google Analytics has been successfully installed to our blog. And, to our surprise, visits have been from such a wide variety of countries, that listing them all is quite unpractical. We have had, to this date, visits from no less than 65 different countries! Hopefully, we will continue to achieve, via web, a broader internationalization of IVLA.
Cheers!
Paula

Studies In Media & Information Literacy Education (SIMILE) provides a venue
for scholarly articles that bridge the subject areas of bibliographic
instruction, information literacy, and media literacy and explores the ways
in which social and cultural environments impact media production and the
methods that could be used to teach the skills needed to "read" these
environments.
SIMILE presents innovative ways to impart the importance of media awareness
and literacy to students and the general public and therefore is a "must
read" for those in the fields of information/media studies, library science,
and education.

resource for reference and teacher librarians, teachers, and professionals
who integrate media literacy concepts into instructional sessions.

Previous IVLA Conference
These are some pics from IVLA 2010 conference, which was held in wonderful Cyprus! Send us your pictures and testimonies on this conference for posting!
News on IVLABoard
IVLA Board met at the Cyprus conference twice. Each meeting lasted for almost two hours, uniting people from several different countries. Topics discussed ranged from publications, the reports submitted by the various committees, and IVLA2011 - hard work!
President's Corner
Current President Marilyn Terzic's text will soon be written.
I am honored to assume the position of IVLA President. IVLA is an international organization that represents members with many different cultural and professional backgrounds. We need to embrace the diverse perspectives of our members, IVLA officers and Board members, committees, and publication editors. We will not always agree on the best ways to address the needs of IVLA, but different points of view are vital to the development of creative ideas that further the goals of the organization. Our diversity is our strength. By channeling our different perspectives and talents into reflective discussions, we can emerge with collective visions which are more creative and insightful than individual ideas.

During this next year I hope you will share your unique perspectives with me and with each other. I urge everyone to engage in challenging discussions that strengthen IVLA as an organization and nurture our professional and personal relationships. Let’s work together to lay the foundation for another exciting and rewarding 40 years!
