About The Be an Editor Game

The world of information access is changing rapidly. As news consumers find fresh ways to seek out the information they want, it's important to understand how news editors decide what will be on the front of tomorrow's newspaper. Be an Editor, a game developed for an audience of all ages, helps you understand some of the basics. You have four top editors giving you their three top stories of the day. What goes on the front page? That's your job as the managing editor of the fictitious Medina Miracle. If you are a teacher, you can use this game to teach editorial process and critical thinking. There are tools along the way to give you teaching pointers.
