ACT Elementary Media Literacy Curriculum Launch

Dr. Tara Zimmerman (TWU) and Dr. Faith Rogow (Insighters Education) will be joining Dr. Dan Krutka’s Teaching Social Studies EC-6 class to kickoff U.S. Media Literacy Week. They will share their recently launched open-access ACT (Awareness and Critical Thinking Activities) Media Literacy Curriculum for grades K-5 that is intended to build students’ media literacy and inquiry skills. The session will include teacher candidates and local librarians discussing how to teach media literacy in elementary classrooms. The event will be streamed on Zoom.
