will open many doors for my students! "  (Florida 6th grade ELA teacher, via email)

"I think that this is a great site for us teachers to use."  teacher, from North Carolina (via email)

I am  proud that the Media Literacy Clearinghouse has received international recognition:  

"The Media Literacy Clearinghouse serves as the 'hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy' of resources related to the
information-seeking behaviors and online communities of today's youth. I constantly refer my graduate
students to Frank's comprehensive collection of sources."
Jamie Campbell Naidoo, Ph.D. Assistant Professor, University of South Carolina, School of Library and Information Science

"The best media literacy teachers are always re-evaluating their material, with a view to make
it more relevant to the students they teach. The Media Literacy Clearinghouse is brimming with
new ideas and resources that will help launch teachers new to the field and re-invigorate long
service teachers.  Frank Baker's rich and wide ranging web site is constantly up dated, and should
be looked at repeatedly by the thoughtful practitioner. McLuhan said it takes an entire village to
raise a child; and Frank's site is like a trusted friend, providing insight and options that will help
us all raise the next generation. " 
Mike Gange, Journalist and media literacy teacher, Fredericton New Brunswick Canada
 

School Library Media Activities Monthly (November 2006)

“This website offers a myriad of resources, definitions and teaching ideas covering
 the key conceptual areas of media literacy from K – University. It is a resource of
value to the international community of media educators and media studies students.
Highly recommended for both those who are new to media literacy and established practitioners”.
 Lee Burton, Education Manager, Australian Children's Television Foundation

 

"While it is always good to see find a new media education web site, 
it is especially good to find one as excellent as that of Frank Baker. 
The wealth of information and resources as well as the links provided 
make it a wonderful and invaluable tool for anyone interested in media education."
John J. Pungente, SJ, producer/host of Bravo's Scanning the Movies;
President, CAMEO (Canadian Association of Media Education Organizations)

 
"the Internet encyclopedia of Media Literacy – if you can’t find it on this site,
 it probably doesn’t exist"   
Review of Sir Wilfrid Laurier School Board, Quebec Canada  
http://www.swlauriersb.qc.ca/schools/recit/ml/mllinks.htm

"Your site is consistently described by our students as being easy to navigate and a rich
resource offering teachers numerous approaches to media literacy across a range of media
and through  an interdisciplinary  approach. If there is such a thing as one stop shopping 
when it comes to getting a comprehensive and current sense of the state of media literacy, 
your website has achieved that distinction."  Dr. David Considine, Coordinator Graduate Program 
in Media Literacy, Appalachian State University- College of Education, Boone, North Carolina

"Your website on To Kill a Mockingbird is truly one of the best
resources I know online or in print for teaching the movie. It provides
an appealing format for exploring the elements of filmmaking, adaptation,
and critical analysis supported by provocative questions, clear explanations, 
attractive film stills, and authoritative citations. Anyone interested in learning 
more about the film or media literacy will find a valuable tool in this handy study guide."
Bill Costanzo, author, "Great Films and How to Teach Them"

"a great place to start, and difficult to leave"
