See you at the NCEA April 14-16

Here’s a good idea! If you will be attending the National Catholic Education Association conference this week at the convention center in Anaheim, first visit the booth of the Daughters of St. Paul/Pauline Books & Media (booth #634) where I will be signing books (as will Sr. Armanda Santos who has a beautiful new book out on st. Paul and Art).

You may also want to attend one of my workshops:

CATHOLIC LIBRARY ASSOCIATION  (Hyatt Regency Orange County)

Looking at Dark Materials through the Light

Leaders in the faith community are frequently challenged to critique and judge all kinds of media

because we live in a mediated world. We are asked to make informed, pastoral judgments about media that the faithful then challenge. What’s a librarian or teacher to do when the only constant thing about any media is that they are inconsistent — or are perceived to be? This presentation will consider guidelines and criteria for navigating the media products of our culture in ways

that are consistent with principles of Catholic education and pastoral practice.

A handout will be provided and clips will be integrated into the seminar.
