Media Literacy Lessons (April 2023)

Media Literacy Lessons (April 2023)

This evening I participated in a wonderful (monthly) webinar hosted by “Teachers for an Informed Public” (@TIPteachers) over Zoom. As participants we shared some experiences we’ve had with ChatGPT as teachers, and it got me thinking about the value of just sharing “here are some of the lessons I’m teaching and facilitating now in my classroom.” This semester I’m teaching four sections and three courses in our middle school, and two of my sections are Computer Applications / Media Literacy. My other courses are Robotics and Intro to Engineering.

Here’s an 11 minute video screencast I recorded (using Screencastify) to highlight some of these lessons. Here’s a OneTab created webpage of 11 of the 12 links I shared, which I will also include at the bottom of this post. Please let me know if you have questions about anything I discussed or shared in this video!
