TechMas Tip #8: NewseumED

So, how many people have had the opportunity to visit the Newseum in Washington, D.C? It has been touted as one of the best interactive museums in the city and a must stop for anyone visiting our country's capital. Today's tip comes to us from the same folks. NewseumED.org offers free resources such as an incredible online collection of primary sources, news artifacts, and lessons.  Their online tools make history, civics and media literacy relevant to students.

You can find material suitable for grades 3rd-12th, as well as post secondary, educators and adults. You can also search by topic, grade, type of ed tool, by date or even by century. You can also search through their EDCollections. Once you find a lesson, you can find instructions, materials and downloads.  You can also find debate topics and positions, discussion questions, and evidence to support your position.  I encourage you to explore the site regardless of what subject you teach.  You will not be disappointed.
