Call for Topic Editors, POEM (Project on Open and Evolving Metaliteracies)

  • 1.  Call for Topic Editors, POEM (Project on Open and Evolving Metaliteracies)

    Posted Nov 13, 2024 09:57 AM

    Is there a topic related to AI and algorithms; data and computation; or media and mis- and dis-information that you don't think is getting enough attention, or that you think is crucial for high schoolers and college students to learn about? Are you interested in helping create a resource to help teachers teach fluency and critical literacy in that area? Would you like to help curate a collection of high-quality, low-cost teaching and learning materials to help students learn about that topic?

    The editorial collective of POEM (Project on Open and Evolving Metaliteracies), a new IMLS-funded online publication, seeks thirty topic editors, ten in each area (AI and algorithmic literacy; data and computational literacy; media and mis/disinformation literacy) to join the project team for a 1.5-year period. The deadline to apply is January 5, 2025. A $2,750 stipend is offered for this work.
