National Telemedia Council

The National Telemedia Council and the Assembly for Media Arts at NCTE have joined forces at the most recent NCTE Annual Conference in Pittsburgh to create a more powerful voice in Media Literacy for English teachers.

The National Telemedia Council, NTC, is the oldest media literacy related organization in the United States. From the NTC website:

"The National Telemedia Council is a national nonprofit organization that has been promoting the concept of media literacy for five decades. From the beginning, we have taken a positive, non-judgmental attitude and embraced a philosophy that values reflective judgment and cooperation rather than confrontation with the media industry."
