A Comprehensive Approach to Teaching Current Issues
Close Up’s supplemental Current Issues resources are designed to provide middle school and high school students with multiple perspectives on debatable current events.
Be sure to check out our professional development trainings and our other work to help teachers, schools, and districts best utilize our Current Issues resources and promote thoughtful classroom discourse!
Close Up is a positive experience for students…
seeing themselves as having the power to influence the democratic process.
I’m truly blown away by what Close Up’s been able to accomplish in the last two weeks during IMPACT 2020…
The material seems very high level, and my daughter’s been very motivated to participate every day. I wanted to be sure to commend the staff on providing such a great experience!
As a government teacher, it’s nice to have more resources…
for teaching media literacy and having students critically think about the information they receive.
I think Close Up’s virtual program is an amazing experience…
