COMPETITION: News Diet Challenge
How is your ‘News Diet’?
This challenge invites students to look at their news consumption over a few days and then produce a short video sharing what they have learned.
We want students to think about how they consume news and examine their habits. Does engaging with more news help their awareness of the world around them?
WHO is this for?
Anyone can take the challenge, but the competition is for secondary students from years 7-10.
WHAT can we win?
Winners of the challenge will spend a day in an ABC News Room!
WHEN can we enter?
The competition is now open! Entries close September 30.
