News and Media Literacy:  Critical, Not Cynical 

How can we help students learn to think actively about the news and media they encounter every day? How can we nurture a critical -- but not cynical -- eye toward evaluating the current world of news media, on the internet and otherwise? Join Common Sense's introductory workshop to digital citizenship with a focus on news and media literacy. We'll explore resources that develop students' abilities to identify, evaluate, and effectively find credible and trustworthy sources.

Making Thinking Visible in the Google Infused Classroom
How do you know your students are truly understanding what they are being taught in your class? How are they showing what they know? And how do you ensure that those who do not perform well on standardized tests have the opportunity to demonstrate their learning and increase their confidence as learners? Join Holly Clark and Tanya Avrith – Co-authors of the Google Infused Classroom as they explore ways you can tweak your lessons to provide creative opportunities for students to make their thinking visible; and strategies for providing timely and meaningful feedback to help them improve as independent learners.
