This internationally published news source makes for an excellent resource for a teacher or student looking for current events. There's information ranging from politics, global news, business, technology - even pop culture. This would be useful in any classroom where a knowledge of the now was focused on.

tag(s): great britain (16), news (229), newspapers (91)

In the Classroom

Use this site to explore the differences in perception and media tilt between the US and one of Britain's leading newspapers. Access the site, sharing it on the interactive whiteboard or projector. Explain the idea of cultural perception and differences before allowing students to access the site on individual computers. Have students open both the UK Independent and a popular US paper, pulling up stories on the same issue. Have students create a Venn diagram of the differences in coverage, perceptions and tilt. Use an online tool such as Interactive Two Circle Venn Diagram (reviewed here). Great for a Government or World History class!

This site is focused on providing visitors with an brief but cursory view of Irish pop culture, as well as headline and travel news. Though some of the information may be too trivial but simply let students browse ad nauseum, this would be a good site for teachers to use when searching for information about Irish culture & news.

During a lesson on the impact of the media and bias, have students select this newspaper and another to study from another country for such a thing. Using a venn digram, have students compare the audiences of both papers, as well as framing issues, bias, coverage, and popularity by numbers. Use an online tool such as the 2 and 3 Circle Interactive Venn Diagrams, reviewed here.This would be a great in class activity before a class discussion of the impact newspapers can have, before focusing on globalization and the similarities and differences between beliefs and politics in other countries.
