The Shape of the Coronavirus News Story: Learning Resources. COVID-19: The First 100 Days of U.S. News Coverage
Bull, Alaina C.; MacMillan, Margy; Fister, Barbara
Project Information Literacy
This guide provides a wide variety of information literacy and news literacy lessons. It offers activities and discussion prompts that support learning in virtual or physical classes based on the first report, "The Shape of the Coronavirus News Story." The ideas and prompts in the guide are for different steps of inquiry and were designed to build news literacy and strengthen information agency using the report as a platform for discussions, activities, and assignments. They can be adapted to work across a variety of online or in-person synchronous or asynchronous learning situations. In addition, there is a set of Learning Activity slides with full instructions that are ready to integrate into online materials. While the resources are geared toward COVID-19, the learning ideas can be adapted to other topics. [Illustrations by Jessica Yurkofsky. For "The Shape of the Coronavirus News Story.
