From the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University comes Youth and Media, an ongoing research project that investigates the risks and opportunities of youth involvement in new technologies and social media platforms. On this website, visitors can learn more about this research and K-12 educators, youth workers, and youth librarians will find a number of educational materials. One such resource is the Digital Literacy Resource Platform (listed under Teaching and Outreach), where visitors can search for materials related to digital literacy. This platform can be easily navigated by Type of Tool (Infographic, Curriculum, Guide, Informative Video, Research Paper, or Podcast) and Theme (Privacy, Information Quality, Creative Expression, and Safety). In addition, educators can check out classroom activities and lesson plans about a range of topics, including news literacy on online platforms and navigating relationships online. Those who want to look at research papers from the Berkman Klein Center may do so via the Publication tab.
