NewsLitCamp Great Lakes has ended
Welcome to NewsLitCamp Great Lakes, in partnership with the Akron Beacon Journal and the Star-Tribune, and sponsored by The Knight Foundation.

NewsLitCamp is an immersive, free professional learning experience primarily for middle and high school educators. It features topical sessions (selected with input from participants) led by journalists and news literacy experts, designed to develop expertise in news literacy education, share specialized teaching resources and provide a behind-the-scenes view of the news reporting process.

You’ll leave NewsLitCamp with new ideas, skills and resources to help your students navigate today’s complex and challenging information landscape and demystify what distinguishes quality journalism from rumors, hoaxes and other types of misinformation.

Here on Sched, you can register for this event and access a schedule outlining the day’s virtual programming.

Sessions will take place via Zoom. Please note: you will need to be logged in to an active Zoom account to access these sessions.
