This is my second collaboration with @Mediasabak Foundation within Humphrey Fellowship Program Alumni Impact Award We are starting the small project on combating disinformation. PF "Media Sabak" and @Factcheck.kg with the support of the Humphrey Impact Alumni Award, announce a competition for participation in the media laboratory for youth among graduates of the program of Media Sabak. The goal of the laboratory is to increase the knowledge of young people in the field of information verification, learn tools for fact-checking and combating disinformation, as well as conveying this information for communities and storytelling. https://lnkd.in/d_RsYsr2.

🎉 A warm welcome to our newest McNair Scholars! Over the next 12 weeks, the McNair Scholars will embark on a journey of academic excellence, research innovation, and personal growth. Let's congratulate them as they start this exciting chapter! 👏 #Welcome #McNairScholars #AcademicExcellence #ResearchJourney #FutureLeaders"

Ruby Wootton, Associate Director at Revealing Reality, will be speaking at PSHE Association’s conference today about our research on building media literacy for children. This research was grant-funded by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (now Department for Science, Innovation and Technology), and aimed to understand how young people use social media, and the impact it has on their lives.   Based on the research we conducted, the PSHE Association and Revealing Reality worked together to create a programme of lessons aimed at Key Stages 3 and 4, designed to build understanding of how social media works and how it makes money, what influence it has over users, and how to use it more critically, and consciously.   The lesson plans created from this research will be going live today.

Educational Interventions Can Matter!

Smithsonian Fellowship applications due October 15, 2024! Scholars from all academic and career stages can apply, and from any discipline. After all, with two dozen museums and research centers, we have something for everyone, I think! Pro tip 1: Don't apply until you have contacted and secured support from an advisor. With their help, you'll know which additional staff to reach out to, which collections to research, which libraries have what, and you can hone your work plan to demonstrate your productivity. Pro tip 2: Most of the fellowships are not for writing time, so using collections and resources tends to tip the scale. https://lnkd.in/eRdyzFVN

"The Fel­low­ship wants lead­ers who are ready for sig­nif­i­cant pro­fes­sion­al chal­lenges and expand­ed lead­er­ship roles — in major com­mu­ni­ty-build­ing ini­tia­tives and in pub­lic sys­tems. They should not sim­ply aspire to the next rung on the orga­ni­za­tion­al lad­der. The Casey Fel­low­ship is not for every­one. We seek the right peo­ple, but also peo­ple at the right moment in their careers. Fel­lows must be pre­pared to par­tic­i­pate in the pro­gram — com­mit­ting the time and ener­gy to take full advan­tage of the Fel­low­ship oppor­tu­ni­ty while bal­anc­ing the demands of their cur­rent posi­tions. Also, they must com­mit to attend all com­po­nents of the Fel­low­ship opportunity. The Casey Foun­da­tion funds the cost of tuition of the Chil­dren and Fam­i­ly Fel­low­ship as well as all pro­gram-relat­ed expens­es, including:  trav­el to and from Fel­low­ship activities; meals; lodg­ing; and mate­ri­als."
