Facebook Launches Educator Hub for Inclusive Online Learning
Facebook is taking steps to foster a more inclusive and respectful online community, particularly on Instagram. The social media giant has launched the Educator Hub, a resource for teachers that offers anti-racism guides, mental health support, and tools for digital learning.
The Educator Hub, launched to aid teachers as schools reopen during the Covid-19 pandemic, provides a wealth of resources. It includes anti-racism guides from organizations such as the Southern Poverty Law Center, the Anti-Defamation League, and Facing History and Ourselves. These guides help educators facilitate crucial conversations with students about racial equality.
The hub also offers mental health tips and self-care strategies from experts. It aids teachers in finding or building online communities, and provides lesson plans, conversation starters, activities, videos, and other tools for digital skills development. Moreover, it helps teachers discuss racial inequities with students and connect with other educators for support.
