[CASL-L] 8th grade credible news lesson

[Casey, Doug]

Hi Emma,

I have been speaking with The News Literacy Project, producers of the Checkology curriculum:

https://newslit.org/

They offer curriculum and (for a premium) connections with journalists from major newspapers and magazines. Common Sense Media has some great resources as well:

https://www.commonsense.org/education/digital-citizenship/curriculum?topic=news--media-literacy

Finally, ISTE and other partners are launching DigCitCommit.org, which has some great resources:

https://digcitcommit.org/resources

Best to you and your students. Miss those 8th graders!

Doug

Subject: [CASL-L] 8th grade credible news lesson

Hello!

I am working on some lessons with 8th grade on evaluating sources, and I was wondering if anyone has lessons that they've done that they love and have been successful!

Thank you!

Emma
