Through Many Lenses: How are Countries Depicted by the Media?

If you plan to utilize the ABC miniseries, "The Path to 9/11" in your classroom, consider incorporating media literacy and research skills. After (or while) learners view the series, they discuss ways information can differ from source to source. Selecting one country mentioned in the docudrama, they compare how it is portrayed in the series to other sources, including media and the Library of Congress. They synthesize findings through an essay. A handout would be helpful.
