A comprehensive look at media literacy education during a period of world crisis, this book offers the reader a variety of perspectives, case studies, and examples of how the online world has allowed for the continuation of scholarship in the field. It also accurately portrays problems faced by individuals given the communication vortex of information, and lack thereof, at times when the online world does not captivate learners and halts development. Furthermore, this resource considers the viewpoints of a wide range of researchers and educators through essays, conversations, and reflections, providing perspectives that capture a moment in time which affected a fragmented global community.

"The post-pandemic society is vastly different to what it was before Therefore, it needs post-pandemic (media) education as a way forward, adapting media educational programs, theories, and concepts of practice to the phenomena of pandemic and post-pandemic media practices.
In this context, The Routledge Handbook of Media Education Futures Post-Pandemic, assembled globally by international experts, shows the conceptual horizons as well as the methodological paths of an advanced and contemporary media education, facing the future of media society and focusing on the spheres through which individuals and societies get empowered to be or to become sovereigns of themselves."
