Building Students’ Media Literacy for Civic Engagement

Join us this Fall for a virtual workshop series co-hosted by the UC Irvine Teacher Academy and The History & Civics Project at UC Santa Cruz.

Reserve your spot now for this free workshop where you will:

receive free curriculum that supports students to build the knowledge, skills, and dispositions to critically engage in civic reasoning and discourse as media consumers, curators and producers
learn instructional strategies from experienced educators that support students' media literacy skills

Why media literacy now? In a world flooded with competing, conflicting, and contradictory information, students need tools and strategies to navigate this din. These resources support students' agency as critical media consumers, curators and producers and foster students' abilities to be reflective and accurate as they share and create media themselves.

We invite you to two virtual sessions on October 19 (4-5:15 pm PST) and October 26 (4-5:15 pm PST). Each session will consist of experienced teachers sharing resources and discussing implementation by grade-span. We will talk in small groups about how media literacy instruction will look in your classroom.
