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.

SUMMARY:Spotting election misinformation and understanding motivations behind how and why it spreads
DESCRIPTION:We need to move beyond the unhelpful term “fake news” to more precisely identify the common types of misleading\, inaccurate and false information that we are likely to encounter in the runup to the elections. We will discuss motivations behind different types of propagators of misinformation and learn fact-checking basics to feel more confident that we will be sharing and acting on accurate\, credible information. By having a deeper understanding of misinformation\, we can become less susceptible to it and more likely to prioritize reliable\, verified sources of news and information. \nThis webinar is the second installment of a three-part series\, brought to you by The News Literacy Project. This session is presented in partnership with the League of Women Voters. To learn more about election misinformation\, please visit our website: https://newslit.org/election2022 \nREGISTER HERE
