Assembly on Media Arts (AMA)
The purposes of this assembly are to promote communication and cooperation among all individuals who have a special interest in media in the English language arts; to present programs and special projects on this subject; to encourage the development of research, experimentation, and investigation in the judicious uses of media in the teaching of English; to promote the extensive writing of articles and publications devoted to it; and to integrate the efforts of those with an interest in this subject. AMA also sponsors a sharing session at each fall convention.
AMA's blog (http://fbaker.easyjournal.com), maintained by Frank Baker, supports the work of the assembly and provides information and resources to teachers.
