It's hard to switch off from issues in the news, and keeping up with a constant newsfeed can have a significant impact on your wellbeing. These resources either explore issues to do with mental health directly or explore how the news can change the way you feel.
Our resources encourage learners to:
- consider the difference between facts and opinions in the news
- reflect on their own response to the stories they read
- share news responsibility
Help your learners develop their communication and critical-thinking skills, whilst boosting their knowledge of an issue that's inseparable from the news cycle.
