SUMMARY:Building Resilient Students: Addressing Health and Science Misinformation Through District and Community Partnerships
DESCRIPTION:This free edLeader panel for administrators and district leaders will explore how strategic partnerships between districts\, schools and communities can ensure that students develop the skills to resist health and science misinformation.  \n\n\n\nIn an age of AI and algorithms\, students encounter misleading science and health content at an alarming rate. Social media influencers and AI-generated posts can heighten anxiety\, fuel body image issues\, spark a desire to participate in dangerous trends and worse. But strong partnerships between districts\, schools\, families and medical professionals can make a difference. These partnerships can ensure that students develop skills such as evaluating sources\, assessing evidence\, and thinking critically about online content and social media feeds.    \n\n\n\nJoin the News Literacy Project’s Brittney Smith and Elliott Goodman; Karen Kelsall-Lagola\, instructional Technology Coach at Beverly Hills Unified School District; and Eli Cahan\, Neonatology Fellow at Stanford University and investigative journalist at Rolling Stone\, for an edLeader panel to learn about the dangers posed to students by health misinformation\, and the actions that school leaders can take to help students recognize and spot falsehoods. They will explore how districts across the U.S. have successfully utilized NLP’s District Fellowship program to implement curriculum equipping all students with the skills to navigate today’s complex information landscape with confidence.   \n\n\n\nViewers will learn about:    \n\n\n\n\nHow health- and science-related misinformation online reaches and influences students.  \n\n\n\n\n\nHow administrators can develop partnerships with family\, community leaders and medical professionals to support news literacy education.   \n\n\n\n\n\nCross-curricular resources to help students at all grades recognize rumors\, AI fakes and misinformation.  \n\n\n\n\n\nHow administrators can scale news literacy education across districts\, with support from the News Literacy Project. \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe edLeader panel will explore real examples of districtwide approaches to news literacy education and health misinformation\, as well as free\, scalable\, ready-to-implement classroom resources. This is designed to complement NLP’s News literacy for mental health and wellness campaign\, equipping educators with the tools to boost student resilience against health and science misinformation.  \n\n\n\nThis session will appeal to K-12 administrators\, district leaders and curriculum leaders.  \n\n\n\n(Can’t make it at these times but still interested? Make sure to register anyway – we’ll email you the recording link afterward.)
