=LSTA 2010-2011 - 6-12 Grade=

The LSTA 2010-2011 project was focused on integrating media literacy into secondary science classrooms. Obviously, there are some major differences between secondary and elementary education, but that doesn't mean you can't learn from them! Feel free to peruse the Wiki from last year, read over the lesson plans that teachers created over the course of the project, and take a look at the article Chris wrote on integrating media literacy in the classroom.
