Issues & Controversies and World News Digest Webinar (State Library of Kansas) Online
A cross-curricular resource, Issues & Controversies provides in-depth coverage of hot-button issues related to business, culture, education, health, media, politics, science, technology, and much more. Each article presents both sides of an issue clearly and without bias in order to inspire thought-provoking discussions. Best of all, Issues & Controversies supports educators by including detailed lesson plans that help teachers introduce fundamental concepts in order to develop and promote critical thinking skills as students learn about—and take a position on—some of the most challenging topics in today’s society, while simultaneously respecting those whose positions may differ.
World News Digest serves as an archival record of domestic and international news and covers all major political, social, and economic events since November 1940. Along with the hundreds of thousands of articles, this database also ensures up-to-the-minute coverage by providing access to current news articles from Reuters.
This training will be recorded for later viewing.
