Indy GSP students: this is a skill you NEED

[Jennifer Zimny @jzimnycricket]

In light of the events yesterday, I've decided to create Media Literacy Mondays for anyone in our staff to use on our Monday asynchronous day. I pulled from @NewsLitProject The Sift newsletter to create the one slide with skills for students to learn.
