Hi Jenny,

Thank you for this!  I had never heard of KQED, and it's free!  I just signed up for a course.  

Best,

Cheryl

Dear colleagues, 

I am participating in KQED's mini-course about media literacy and I am learning a ton! I can't recommend them enough. 

Visit: https://teach.kqed.org/media-academy-for-educators

Week 2 is focused on lateral reading and they shared an article about why this is the most effective strategy versus things like the CRAAP test and other checklists.

Thought I would pass this along - certainly worth thinking about.

Jenny
