MEDIA LITERACY

Over the past two years, the Illinois Democracy School Network at DuPage has facilitated media literacy work that encourages our youngest citizens to be wise consumers of media. They are pleased to share this media clip from a Denver news station highlighting the program and featuring Neuqua Valley High School in Naperville.
 
This April 27, educators have the opportunity to join Dr. Joel Breakstone, director of the Stanford History Education Group, for a timely webinar (and PD hours) on how to help students navigate the information landscape for informed civic participation. Participants will gain tools and ideas to enhance classroom practices. For more information, click here.

Networking is a great way to tap into the collective knowledge of your peers. Share resources, ideas, and experiences. Register for one of our networks today:
