News Literacy
Project Launches NewsLit Nation, a National Educator Network
@NewsLitProject |
To work toward reducing the harmful
effects of misinformation on young minds, NLP is launching NewsLit Nation, the
home of its News Literacy Educator Network. NewsLit Nation members advocate for
news literacy education and support educators helping students navigate the
complex digital news ecosystem.
With educators on the frontline of the fight against misinformation, NewsLit Nation provides resources and know-how for this urgent and important work. The network also organizes locally to enable educators to push for news literacy instruction in their schools and communities, says Ebonee Rice, NLP’s vice president of the educator network.
