Synopsis

Build communication skills that can last a lifetime

To adolescents enthralled by the instant gratification of social media, the pace of classroom routines can seem glacial. How can educators engage today’s “swipe-happy” students and prepare them to thrive in a world where disinformation is as easy to absorb as information?

Language Arts in Action is a thoughtful guide for secondary school educators wanting to reengage their classes with more active, student-centred instruction. Here, teachers will find tools rooted in journalistic learning: a model that uses project-based storytelling to develop critical communication skills. By allowing young people to research, write and publish articles aligned with their interests, educators can transform language arts, especially for students who feel their experiences and concerns are missing from traditional instruction.
