Using PSAs for Student Engagement
One of the ways I like to give my students voice to share their opinions is to have them create a public service announcement (PSA) about something they are passionate about. PSAs are often visual stories that provide information to an audience, evoke an emotion, and often have a call to action.
Example of a PSA on TikTok
TikTok on Monday announced the launch of its public service announcement (PSA) titled #MattCarrForward or Do Not Forward to help raise awareness around the creation and sharing of misinformation on digital platforms.
