In the 21st century, students are often hit with a barrage of unvetted information. As educators, it is important to guide students in how to assess and evaluate online content (one of my favorite tools for this is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.csuchico.edu\/lins\/handouts\/eval_websites.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">CRAAP test<\/a>, created by California State University at Chico). Another way to help students stay abreast of current events is to guide them towards authentic news agencies and resources, especially those that engage in social media. At the beginning of the school year, I ask my students follow a series of news sources on the Social Media channels that they use (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, etc). By keeping these resources in their news feeds, not only do they get breaking news as they check their accounts, but they can use that information to counterbalance the hyperbole and misinformation that may be found in conjunction with a news story. Here are a few resources that I suggest they follow:<\/p>\n<h1><b>Public Radio &amp; Television<\/b><\/h1>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.npr.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">NPR<\/a> continues to be a well respected source of news and information that features a lot of worthwhile content on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/NPR\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NPR\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a>. It also supplements on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/npr\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram<\/a> and Snapchat (you can look up their feed within the app). In addition to the national channels, students can also follow their local NPR stations for news and stories that impact their community. I also encourage students to check out NPR\u2019s new app, <a href=\"http:\/\/one.npr.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">NPR One<\/a>, which allows them up to date stories of interest from around the globe.<\/p>\n<h1><b>National and Local Newspapers<\/b><\/h1>\n<p>Many newspapers are now behind a paywall (although your local or school library may have digital access for students and teachers). Still, you can access headlines and, in most cases, a limited number of stories per month. Encourage your students to follow the national news, such as: the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">New York Times<\/a>, the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Washington Post<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.usatoday.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">USA Today<\/a> on Facebook and Twitter (as well as other media they employ) in addition to local and state newspapers. Many papers now offer apps for iOS and Android; while an account may be necessary to access all of the content, they still allow students to read headlines and news snippets.<\/p>\n<h1><b>Public Network News<\/b><\/h1>\n<p>Network news remains a staple in American society and the \u201cbig three;\u201d <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">NBC News<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">ABC News<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">CBS News<\/a>; are the largest producers of national and local news. Stories that are shared on the public airways are readily available on their websites and includes not only printed material, but video and other relevant media. In addition to the national news cycle, they have local affiliates that cover regional and local stories. Ask students to follow their Twitter and Facebook accounts to keep up with breaking news. Comparing how different news sites cover breaking news is an excellent way to begin a discussion on journalism.<\/p>\n<h1><b>Cable News<\/b><\/h1>\n<p>Cable news has become emblematic of our 24 hour news cycle as well as a topic of public debate. While watching the news itself requires a cable subscription, they have open websites and even news clips posted online. Students can keep track of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cnn.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">CNN<\/a> news stories on their website, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/cnnbrk\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a> account, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/cnn\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a>. For more politically driven news, more mature students can explore news avenues such as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">FoxNews<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.msnbc.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">MSNBC<\/a>; they can discuss how stories are examined (or not) on different networks. Again, comparative analysis of news can facilitate discussions about the ethics of news as entertainment or political discourse.<\/p>\n<h1><b>International and Foreign Language<\/b><\/h1>\n<p>The internet has brought news from around the world into our living rooms. Students can explore English language news covered from a different perspective. For example, students might explore American politics on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\" target=\"_blank\">BBC<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Aljazeera<\/a>. Reading English language news from other countries helps students to broaden their perspective. By subscribing to these avenues on their Facebook and Twitter pages, students can keep abreast of breaking news around the world.<\/p>\n<p>Students studying other languages can explore news networks abroad. For example, French students can read <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lemonde.fr\/\" target=\"_blank\">Le Monde<\/a>\u2019s website or follow them on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/lemondelive?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a>. Spanish students can access <a href=\"http:\/\/www.univision.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Univision<\/a> and follow Spanish language news in the Americas via their Spanish language <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/univision\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/univisionnoticias\/?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a> accounts.. German students can access <a href=\"http:\/\/www.spiegel.de\/international\/\" target=\"_blank\">Spiegel<\/a> online or follow their German language <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/derspiegel\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a> account and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DerSpiegel\/\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Accessing the news has shifted in light of new technologies. Bringing current events into the Social Media environment that students already explore allows them to have ready access to the news cycle and more meaningfully engage with what is happening around the world.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&nbsp;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/ettsummer.org\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-8217 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/edtechteacher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Engligh-1024x512.png\" alt=\"Engligh\" width=\"900\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/edtechteacher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Engligh.png 1024w, https:\/\/edtechteacher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Engligh-300x150.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This post first appeared on Daily Genius.
