Join us for an interactive session that explores systemic solutions to the youth information crisis. Grounded in the pedagogy of the News Literacy Project, this session will introduce a robust, standards-based framework designed to foster critical thinking and civic responsibility. Participants will discover a free ecosystem of digital tools—including the Checkology® virtual classroom and RumorGuard®—and learn how districts are successfully scaling these resources to impact over a million students nationwide. Leave this session with actionable strategies and turnkey resources to help your students become active, media-literate participants in our democracy.

According to recent national data, only 18% of teens can accurately differentiate between news, opinion, and sponsored content, leaving them highly vulnerable to conspiracy theories and viral misinformation. How can schools bridge this digital divide?
