Media literacy is a central part of civics instruction, but integrating the two topics is no easy task. Addressing issues of equity and social justice can feel even more complicated, especially as challenges to teaching civics and media literacy increase. Join us to explore how media literacy underpins civics, learn about resources to support educators, and hear about our experience developing a new civics curriculum that harnesses and builds these essential media literacy skills. Panelists, including teachers and civics experts, will share their insights and strategies and engage participants in discussion. This session, designed for teachers, is jointly presented by NAMLE and Education Development Center, Inc.
