Students can use the images and articles from newspapers, magazines, encyclopedias, as well as primary source documents. There are video and audio clips to enhance their understanding. The text can be translated and adjusted for their own personal learning needs. Most of these resources offer text-to-speech, a dictionary, highlighting, and many other amazing online tools.
All of these resources include citations and are free from copyright violation. But most importantly, the information is reliable, accurate, and updated daily...the perfect place to avoid FAKE NEWS.
