OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES:THE PALEY CENTER'S EDUCATION PROGRAMS FOR K-12 STUDENTS AND TEACHERS UTILIZE THE PALEY CENTER ARCHIVE TO BUILD PARTICIPANTS' ANALYTICAL THINKING, VIEWING, AND LISTENING SKILLS AND TO DEEPEN STUDENTS' UNDERSTANDING OF MEDIA AS A POWERFUL TOOL TO PERSUADE AND INFORM. CLASSES FOR STUDENTS EXAMINE MEDIA'S SHAPING INFLUENCE ON HISTORIC AND CONTEMPORARY EVENTS AND ITS UNIQUE POWER TO EDUCATE AND ENGAGE AUDIENCES. ALL EDUCATION CLASSES ARE ALIGNED WITH STATE AND LOCAL STANDARDS FOR ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS, SOCIAL STUDIES, AND VISUAL ARTS. DURING CLASSES, STUDENTS VIEW A CURATED SELECTION OF CLIPS FROM THE ARCHIVE TO EXAMINE MEDIA'S COVERAGE OF AND IMPACT ON A PARTICULAR ERA OR THEME, SUCH AS THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT, THE COLD WAR, ACTIVISM, AND PORTRAYALS OF WOMEN ON TELEVISION. EDUCATORS THEN GUIDE AN INQUIRY-BASED DISCUSSION WHERE STUDENTS ARE ASKED TO CRITICALLY EVALUATE THE CONTENT THEY HAVE VIEWED AND TO PROVIDE EVIDENCE-BASED RESPONSES. EDUCATORS SPEAK ABOUT TECHNIQUES USED TO CONSTRUCT A NARRATIVE, VISUAL AND AUDITORY CLUES, AND COMPARE AND CONTRACT TECHNIQUES ACROSS DIFFERENT PROGRAMS, EXAMINING THEM FOR PURPOSE AND EFFECT. TO REINFORCE LEARNING AND INTEGRATE IT WITH CLASSROOM CURRICULUM, TEACHERS RECEIVE PRE- AND POST-VISIT MATERIALS THAT COVER KEY VOCABULARY, DISCUSSION QUESTIONS, AND INCLUDE SUGGESTED CLASSROOM ACTIVITIES TO EXTEND THE LEARNING EXPERIENCE. CLASSES AND ONLINE RESOURCES ARE DESIGNED TO PREPARE STUDENTS FOR A 21ST CENTURY DIGITAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENT.EACH YEAR, OUR EDUCATORS LEAD OVER 150 MEDIA LITERACY CLASSES AND WORKSHOPS SERVING MORE THAN 5,000 K-12 SCHOOL CHILDREN AND EDUCATORS. CLASSES ARE ADJUSTED ACCORDING TO GRADE LEVEL, COVER A BROAD RANGE OF SUBJECTS, AND INCORPORATE GUIDED DISCUSSION TO ENCOURAGE ACTIVE OBSERVATION AND CRITICAL THINKING. OVER 80% OF STUDENTS SERVED COME FROM NEW YORK CITY.
