Digital Natives, Yet Strangers to the Web - 0 views

  •  
    Interesting read about the challenges of addressing media literacy in school & why it is so important. "Today's schools are focusing on boosting kids' technological proficiency and warning them about the perils of the web. But something critical is missing from this education. On the other end are the skeptics, among them the adults who fear that kids are being thrusted into a world of cyberbullies and pedophiles."

    This is the program my husband used to teach my 8th graders how to code their text for the app. My students loved it and can't wait to code! They code on one side of the screen and see the results on the other side. It gives them instant feedback to see if their code is correct or not.

How media literacy is critical to saving our democracy - 1 views

    Solid article by Alan November "We are in a mission-critical state of losing our democracy unless we broaden our definition of what it means to be literate today. As with reading print, web and media literacy needs to be embedded across the curriculum and within the design of assignments across all grades and subjects. Students need practice, practice, practice."
