Each CNN10 video is relatively short – 10 minutes. There are a number of ways that you can incorporate this into your class. You might watch it every day as an opener, you might watch several of them on a designated day of the week, or you might have students watch them at home in a flipped classroom.

As for evaluating students afterwards, you could take a number of approaches. You could have them write summaries. Or you might have them take a quiz. You could also just grade them based on their participation in answering the CNN10 discussion questions listed above.

- Is CNN10 Biased?

 

If you work in a school with ideological diversity – or one with a strong conservative bent – you might be afraid that CNN10, aka “fake news” is too “liberal” to use in your class. You can rest assured that CNN10 presents the news in a neutral way, and it goes to great lengths to make sure that both sides of every issue receive equal reporting.

In fact, the biggest critique of CNN10 might be that it goes too far in trying to be neutral. But that’s a discussion for another day, and if you’re ever challenged by a parent you should have no problem demonstrating that CNN10 is a fair and balanced resource.
