“An overwhelming majority of teens – 94% – say schools should be required to teach media literacy. And students with some form of media literacy lessons are more likely to fact-check before posting to social media, push back against misinformation when they see it and seek out reliable news.”
"We need an Olympic-size commitment to teaching media literacy in our classrooms across America." - Philanthropist & NLP board member Melanie Lundquist

Macromedia Authorware & Director. Authorware was a great tool in its day (especially for non-coders). Also a big fan of iBooks Author. I know, technically, it’s still around, Apple stopped supporting/developing it.
