Like many other companies across the nation, Checkology is being offered for free by The News Literacy Project during this period of social distancing and remote learning. I love this product so much I set up a classroom for my family and friends (including my mother)!

The team! While we’ve always, as an organization with staff spread out geographically, used Zoom for all-staff calls, today’s edition felt a little more special (& needed). It's important to stay connected during these especially critical times for everyone, & for our work.
