KQED
(https://www.kqed.org/education/) is a free media literacy teaching and
learning hub for educators and students. You’ll find professional development
courses, classroom resources and unique tools that allow students to practice
critical thinking, media making and civil discourse. This website is provided
by the nonprofit public media station KQED. It includes lesson plans and
resources aligned to Common Core State Standards (CCSS). The main goal of each lesson is to promote
youth voice and help middle and high school students learn civic engagement and
media literacy skills through critical thinking, civil discourse and media
making.
KQED
serves educators and students nationwide by providing free, high-quality
resources that strengthen media literacy skills, empower youth voice and
encourage civil discourse. As a
nonprofit and a leader in media innovation, KQED provides standards-aligned
classroom content and professional development courses that educators can
trust. The KQED education team is comprised of educators and experienced media
professionals with a passion for equity and access in education. Listed below are some of the free educational
services and content for teachers and students: KQED Learn, KQED Teach, and
Above the Noise. KQED Learn is a safe
place student in the middle and high school to practice media literacy and
civic discourse skills with their peers nationwide. KQED Teach is a free professional development
site that offers online courses that teach educators to create multimedia and
integrate media literacy into their curriculum.
Above the Noise is a video series co-created with youths to investigate
controversial topics relevant to students' lives.
Overall,
I believe this is a great literacy website which targets students in the upper
levels of middle school and high school.
This site is a great place for students to learn about integrating media
into student learning.
