Summary:This guide provides ideas for class and personal exercises using the research findings from the second report in the two-part series, "Visual Messaging of the Coronavirus News Story." The ideas and prompts in the guide are for different steps of inquiry and were designed to build news literacy and strengthen information agency using the report as a platform for discussions, activities, and assignments. They can be adapted to work across a variety of online or in-person synchronous or asynchronous learning situations. In addition, there is a set of Learning Activity slides with full instructions that are ready to integrate into online materials. While the resources are geared toward COVID-19, the learning ideas can be adapted to other topics. [Illustrations by Jessica Yurkofsky. For "Visual Messaging of the Coronavirus News Story.
