3 common teacher concerns about AI and how leaders can address them, via educator @KBeddes: principalproject.org/how-school-lea…

Be sure to check out this month's episode of the Jordan Journey with hosts @covili & @KBeddes, talking about how to prepare 2025 graduates: the-jordan-journey.simplecast.com/episodes/portr… #JordanDTL #DTLutah #uted #portraitofagraduate #CTE

At the 2025 #SXSW EDU conference, a panel of experts discussed the evolving importance of media literacy education amid rising misinformation and political polarization. @SteveSaltwick, who works with @braverangels — a national nonprofit that works on healing the wounds of political polarization — shared his own experience being misled by a fake video, emphasizing the ease with which even informed individuals can be deceived. Panelists — including Saltwick, Tanner Higgin, Ph.D. of @WestEd, and digital educator @KBeddes of @JordanDistrict — argued for a proactive, inclusive approach to media literacy that integrates real-world media analysis, supports respectful dialogue, and promotes character development. They highlighted practical strategies for educators, such as using authentic media, encouraging cross-perspective engagement, and embedding media literacy into existing curriculum rather than treating it as an add-on. The goal is to equip students not only with fact-checking skills but with the emotional and critical faculties to navigate today's complex media landscape. This growing awareness of the emotional and psychological dynamics of misinformation reflects a deeper challenge: today, misinformation doesn’t just spread — it attaches itself to who we are and becomes us.
