This has been an exciting and ground breaking election season and the teachable moments for your classroom aren’t over yet. PBS has created an incredible collection of online resources for your classroom that will help your students access, analyze and act using the power of social media. The Access, Analyze and Act resources provide you with the tools that will engage your students’ interest in the election process and guide them in using social media to actively explore and comment on what they see happening all around them. Along they way, they will develop and sharpen critical information and media literacy skills.
The resources and tools within Access, Analyze and Act were developed for use all across the grade bands. While the vast majority of these students can’t yet participate in the voting process, it is never too early to begin teaching them how to be actively engaged in the civic process. Visit Access, Analyze and Act to learn more.
