SUMMARY:Districtwide News Literacy Approaches for the K-12 Experience: Leading by Example
DESCRIPTION:Whether we’re interacting with AI\, scrolling social media\, or preparing to vote in the next election\, news literacy skills such as analyzing credibility and identifying misinformation are essential for everyday life. Students who don’t have these skills benefit from a unified approach to news literacy education throughout their K-12 experience. \n\n\n\nAs many school communities confront this challenge\, 44 school districts in 16 states around the country are leading the way with innovative models to ensure their students possess news literacy skills before graduation. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to learn directly from their experience. \n\n\n\nElliott Goodman and Brittney Smith\, the News Literacy Project’s Directors of District Fellowships\, will lead a conversation with educators from Gunnison Watershed School District in Gunnison\, Colorado\, Hancock County Schools in New Cumberland\, West Virginia\, and Rochester City School District in Rochester\, New York. All three districts participate in the News Literacy Project’s three-year District Fellowship program. \n\n\n\nLearn how these districts created news literacy initiatives tailored to their communities’ needs and hear what has worked—and what hasn’t—when it comes to collaborating with other educators and ensuring long-term success. You’ll gain inspiration and ideas that you can apply immediately\, and an insider’s perspective from educators who are part of the District Fellowship program. You’ll also learn how to start an application for your own district. \n\n\n\nThere will be time for questions at the end of the session. This edWebinar is ideal for K-12 educators and school- and district-level leaders. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister here
