News Literacy Project
🎉Happy 10th Birthday, #Checkology! While NLP has been around since 2008, our virtual classroom hits double digits tomorrow - & we might be biased (haha), but this feels worthy of celebration!
💡Checkology helps educators bring news literacy into the classroom with lessons, quizzes, posters & more!

If students can tell the difference between types of content with different purposes, they're better equipped to separate fact from fiction.
