How can engagement with underreported global news stories and media literacy skills support existing curricula, while also preparing students to engage critically and empathetically with the world? How can students cultivate a curiosity in global issues, develop an ability to think critically about how and why stories are covered, and consider how engagement with underreported news stories in their classrooms can inspire them to take informed action? The Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting is offering paid, virtual fellowships for 16 educators during SY2022-23 to explore these questions in a community of passionate educators, award-winning journalists, and the Pulitzer Center education staff members.
Fellows will participate in workshops, develop and implement short units, and share their projects publicly through the Pulitzer Center’s online lesson library and virtual professional development programs. Upon completion, Fellows will earn a $1,200 stipend, digital badge, and 35 PLUs. This Fellowship is open to grade 4–12 classroom teachers.
