Frank Baker's Media Literacy Clearinghouse - This site provides resources to teach standards on media literacy. Media Literacy: Teaching Standards provides examples on how media topics are incorporated into education, social media, and health, as well as other parts of our lives. This site provides lessons you can use with students to discuss how media can be altered. For example, What You See and What You Don't See can be used as an activity with your students to first display what they see compared to what is happening behind the lens in the picture.
