CAN I USE THIS AS A LIBRARY OR CLASSROOM LESSON?
While some do use this Digital Bulletin Board as a news media literacy lesson or for journalism classes, I did not create it for this purpose. I am a school librarian, and I created this as a scrolling slideshow for school libraries.
It is meant as a passive library program, not a lesson. You can set the slideshow timings and leave it to scroll throughout the day.
If you plan to use this News Media Digital Bulletin Board as a lesson, be advised that you may need to edit some text, move some slides around, and/or delete some slides. Additional prep will likely be needed.
