Don’t miss out on our final two webinar sessions: ‘Teaching News Literacy in the Era of Hyper-Polarized Media’

Educators are heading back to school soon. Our FREE webinar series will help you prepare. The third and final session of our popular webinar series on “Teaching News Literacy in the Era of Hyper-Polarized Media” is this week!

With the first two sessions already successfully completed, we’re eagerly looking forward to delivering the most comprehensive and insightful session yet. You don’t need to have attended the first two sessions to join us for this final one.

Why Attend? We live in a digital age where information spreads like wildfire and truth is often obscured by partisan bias. Teaching news literacy is an indispensable responsibility for educators. Our final session is designed to equip you with the necessary tools and strategies to empower your students to navigate the complex media landscape effectively.

This week we will build upon the knowledge covered in the first two sessions, diving deeper into news literacy concepts, such as fact-checking techniques, source verification, and identifying unreliable and biased information. This final session will be highly interactive, with real-world examples from The Media Bias Chart© and our Topic of the Week to enhance your understanding. Perhaps most importantly, we will include actionable strategies for seamlessly integrating news literacy lessons into your existing curriculum, ensuring that your students reap the full benefits of this essential skillset. 

The final session marks the culmination of our comprehensive webinar series. This is your last chance to participate in an engaging and transformative learning experience that will undoubtedly impact both your teaching and your students’ lives.
