morning walk at Dallas USA today(2) 
Join the News Literacy Project and the Washington Post TikTok Team in this exciting event designed for educators and students during National News Literacy Week 2024.
Social media plays such a large role in the lives of young people today that it is now one of the primary sources where young people receive their news and information, according to a 2022 report from the Reuters Institute. Given the evolution of Americans’ news consumption habits, the ever-changing social media landscape and the rise of generative AI, it’s never been more important to ensure the next generation can distinguish facts from fiction and interact with their social feeds in an informed, responsible way.
Explore these issues and learn about news and social media – particularly TikTok – during this webinar presented by the News Literacy Project, featuring NLP’s Alexa Volland and the Washington Post’s Dave Jorgenson and Carmella Boykin. This event was designed for students and educators as an opportunity to deepen students’ news literacy skills and complement Newsroom to Classroom journalist visits, available through NLP’s Checkology virtual classroom.
