The Media Education Lab founded in 2003 by Professor Renee Hobbs to improve the educational practice of media literacy through educational programs, curriculum design, professional development and community outreach.
The Media Education Lab also study best practice of media literacy and conduct program evaluation to measure the impact of teaching media literacy using multidisciplinary research agenda.
Since the Media Education Lab is not a place but a community of learners, many graduate students and emerging scholars join the network of media educators to increase their knowledge and practice.
