International Council for Educational Media-Conseil International des Medias Educatifs (ICEM-CIME) brings together experts from the fields of education, media, IT, and educational media production. Since its formation in 1950, the organization has witnessed and contributed to educational media in an international forum. The 2009 ICEM conference "Literacy and You in a Digital Age" has brought international and local expertise to bear on the possibilities presented by media in promoting and developing literacy and knowledge. The paper sessions vary from all aspects of digital learning such as the pilot distance learning Project (simultaneous video link) between the Madinat Zayed and Ruwais colleges of the Higher Colleges of Technology--separated by some 180 km of sand desert; the integration of digital archives to improve undergraduates work in Taiwan; and a study of 10th grade boys' literacy attainment with video games in the USA to the pioneering steps in ICT in Mozambique. The following are included in the 2009 proceedings: (1) Information, Knowledge and Digital Learning: A Post-Modern Approach (Constantine Andoniou); (2) A Conceptual Model for Small Screens: A Case of Design, Redesign and Application in the Context of an Outdoor Educational Activity (Daniel Churchill); (3) The Use of Technology to Support Learning at Higher Colleges of Technology (Ghassan Frache); (4) Integrating Literacy through Video Games (Hannah R. Gerber); (5) Digital Play and Social Network Services (Hannah R. Gerber); (6) Can Commercially Produced Blended Materials Be Globally Successfully?
