| READ WHAT EDUCATORS AND LIBRARIANS SAY About The Web Awareness Workshops I was thrilled to see that the learning resources are presenting media topics that are not only parallel to curriculum outcomes, but also relevant to developing student critical thinking, and the development of historical consciousness. I greatly appreciate the efforts the Media Awareness Network has taken in preparing quality resources for educational programming! Pat Harrison Social Studies Consultant Winnipeg School Division I previewed the workshops and am very impressed with the content and how it is presented. It was good to see that the stats were all Canadian giving it more demographic authenticity. The whole resource is well organized and sequentially laid out.
