Description
The Alliance for Decision Education (ADE), a national nonprofit founded in 2013, is working to improve education by helping K-12 students think critically, evaluate evidence, and navigate complexity. Through partnerships with 150 schools across 28 states and districts and education leaders, ADE integrates Decision Education or lessons about how to make thoughtful, informed choices into schools, trains teachers, and builds a network focused on helping students make better decisions for themselves and their communities. In an era of misinformation, these skills foster informed citizenship and support the Corporation’s vision for an informed and engaged youth population. With the Corporation’s support ADE will refine and expand its Media Literacy Incubator models, enabling the development of new tools, impact measurement, and strategic partnerships to reach more students. This support will help launch a third cohort and amplify efforts to equip students with critical decision-making skills in today’s polarized media landscape while fostering collaboration among educators, researchers, and policymakers, enabling them to scale the initiative nationally.
