Supporting Student Engagement & Inquiry-based Learning with Newsela

Learning occurs when students are engaged, and students are more likely to engage when content makes a real-world connection to their lives or interests. Newsela offers texts on a range of interests and lived experiences with features to support student interaction and choice. Inquiry-based learning promotes student engagement and development of critical thinking skills. Newsela enables teachers to facilitate multiple models of student-driven exploration of content and essential questions in service of real-world application and action.
