I’m headed to #TCEA in a few weeks! ☀️Hoping to connect with edu friends! Who else is going?

Wonderful to see @socialstudiestx in person at #NCSS2025!!

On today's App Smash recap: @eolsonteacher introduces @Checkology's free resources that teach news literacy, credibility evaluation, and independent critical thinking through interactive lessons and journalist connections.

The journey to #TXCSS begins!

Tip Tuesday! Know your dashes...

👉 Hyphen (-) joins words (student-made project)

👉 En dash (–) shows ranges (Aug 5–9)

👉 Em dash (—) adds emphasis (Humans used em dashes—long before AI learned them)

Wonderful to meet you in person @KBeddes! Thank you for stopping by my poster session!! #ISTELive25

Another Iowa educator, and former Iowa Featured Speaker at the ITEC Fall Conference, spotted at #ISTElive. Erin Olson with the News Literacy Project leading a poster session all about the great resources they have for students.

🤷🏾 Not to sound boring, but our advice for #AprilFoolsDay is the same as our advice every day: Verify before you share!

⚠️ Remember that what starts out as a joke or satire often gets shared as fact.

❌And it's still true: Memes aren't news! More tips: bit.ly/7tipsNLP

🤔 To begin assessing content's credibility, it's critical to determine its purpose!

ℹ️ Use our Checkology lesson "InfoZones" to teach students this foundational news literacy skill.
