This was a two-day lesson where I lectured the first, then we did a scavenger hunt on forms/types of bias the next day so they could apply what they learned to reporting scenarios provided by Checkology. #TLSkyChat

I am leading a Book Study with her newest book. @elissamalespina.bsky.social It starts on Monday. #TLSkyChat
I'm getting ready to dive into Elissa Malespina's series she did over the summer on teaching evaluation/use of AI in research.

Q5: How has generative Artificial Intelligence changed the media literacy conversations you have with students?

@newslit.org OMG Sift is everything. I love using them for bellringers. Ways to just embed Media Lit a little bit at a time. #TLSkyChat
I require my MLS students to subscribe to the News Literacy Project Newsletter (The Sift) for just this reason - they highlight current misinformation that the students might have already seen for use in a lesson without taking a lot of time to find/investigate/prepare something yourself.
#TLskychat
A4: Start with media students encounter! Unpack a meme or viral video: Who made it? Why? What’s missing? Then have students create their own or design an ad to trigger a specific feeling. Creating media shows how easily messages can be crafted to manipulate us. #TLSkyChat

Nope, but it should be.

Components are integrated in the ELA standards.

Q1: Is media literacy required in your country/state or school? To what degree and what levels? If so, who is responsible? Share any state/national resources that are helpful.

Answer with A1: and include #TLSkyChat

Gotta love an unfunded mandate :P #TLSkyChat
A1: Our state has a Digital Citizenship requirement under the NYS Computer Science & Digital Fluency Standards. It honestly depends on the district on who is required to teach these skills. I try to teach these skills the best I can in my collaboration, but it is not a requirement for me. #TLSkyChat

Pro tip for live chats: try Deck.blue to follow columns, hashtags, and scheduled posts. Jennifer @jenniferlagarde.bsky.social and I use it for #TLSkyChat. It makes discussions so much easier to track. Give it a shot for an easier #TLSkyChat experience! @deck.blue

Q5: I think more than changed, it has heightened/enhanced components of the lessons & conversations.
