SUMMARY:Teaching about Mis/Disinformation in Early Elementary Grades Using Constructivist Media Decoding
DESCRIPTION:How can we introduce in grades K-3 the type of deep questioning and critical thinking skills necessary for all students to evaluate the media messages they see\, read and hear in today’s world? Highlighting dozens of free lessons from Project Look Sharp that use the kinds of media children already have in their lives (food packages\, movies\, YouTube videos\, etc.)\, this highly interactive presentation will demonstrate how inquiry-based\, student-centered\, curriculum-driven media analysis can engage even the youngest students in questions about what’s true and what’s not. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Balance Your Brain

What about confirmation bias of media producers — news reporters\, bloggers\, social media influencers\, and other user-generated content? How does their confirmation bias affect the news and information we read\, watch and listen to in the digital culture? What can we do to counter confirmation bias? \nThis event is not open to the public.

SUMMARY:Reddit Ask Me Anything (AMA) with NASED and NAMLE
DESCRIPTION:We’re Meagan Wolfe\, President of the National Association of State Election Directors (NASED) and the Chief Election Official of Wisconsin\, and Michelle Ciulla Lipkin\, Executive Director of the National Association for Media Literacy Education (NAMLE).   \nWe’re excited to be here together to answer your questions about what media literacy is\, why it’s important to elections\, how election officials are combating false information about elections\, and any other election administration or media literacy questions you might have.  Media literacy skill building helps across all subjects\, but it’s especially important with elections to help build resilience to all of the false information out there about election administration in the United States.  \nNASED is a nonpartisan\, nonprofit\, professional association for state election officials in all 50 states\, DC\, and the five US territories.  In 40 states\, the Secretary of State or Lieutenant Governor is the Chief Election Official\, and in those states\, the election director works for the Secretary of State or Lieutenant Governor.  In the other 16 states and territories\, including in Meagan’s state of Wisconsin\, the Chief Election Official typically works for a bipartisan board or commission – Meagan is the Administrator of the Wisconsin Elections Commission.  Whether they are a Chief Election Official or work for a Chief Election Official\, the person filling the election director role implements new policies and technologies\, works with local election officials\, and so much more. \nFounded in 1997\, NAMLE is a nonpartisan\, 501(c)3 professional organization that represents a diverse network of people and organizations committed to advancing media literacy education. As the leading voice\, convener\, and resource for media literacy education\, NAMLE aims to make media literacy highly valued and widely practiced as an essential life skill. Michelle Ciulla Lipkin began her career in children’s television production\, in various roles on both corporate and production teams\, and has been the executive director of NAMLE since 2012. She earned both her undergraduate and graduate degrees from New York University and is currently an Adjunct Lecturer at Brooklyn College where she teaches Media Literacy.

SUMMARY:Thomson Reuters Media Literacy Contest
DESCRIPTION:We live in an increasingly digital world – media is no longer just information we see or hear from journalists. Anyone has the ability to create and disseminate content\, but it is not always done in a responsible or professional manner. Critical thinking and media literacy are key skills that are needed in today’s world. This year\, we are asking students in the U.S. and Canada: \n“How do you use media literacy skills when creating and sharing media?” \nStudents are invited to share their thoughts with us via video submission. We encourage teachers to leverage the resources we’ve created to present this\nas a learning opportunity in their classrooms. \nWhen: The deadline for submission is October 7\, 2022 at 5pm ET. \nWho: The contest is open to middle and high school students from the United States and Canada. \nPrizes: Up to five (5) students will be selected from this contest to receive a virtual mentorship opportunity with a Reuters journalist.
