Title: Newspaper in Education
Description: NIE, the acronym for Newspaper In Education, is the name of an educational partnership between the newspaper industry and participating school systems. In this cooperative venture, schools use newspapers to teach a variety of subjects – history, reading, social science, math, economics, composition, journalism and government, to name a few – at all grade levels.
To make NIE happen, key people are needed at the schools and the newspaper. At schools, principals, teachers and curriculum supervisors should participate in the NIE program. At the newspaper, managers, marketers, news and editorial staff, delivery personnel and NIE representatives must become involved. Moreover, NIE succeeds only if a close relationship develops between the schools and the newspaper. These relationships need time to develop.
