ConnectED is an educational platform and community designed by educators, for educators, providing resources and programs on the Israeli-Palestinian story, antisemitism and the Holocaust, and Jewish history, along with essential skills in media literacy and dialogue across difference.
In today’s digital age, when misinformation is pervasive, students are often exposed to biased or false information, leading to misunderstandings and polarized communities.
Our mission is to foster understanding, critical thinking, and respectful, informed dialogue to help students and educators move beyond polarized thinking, embrace complexity, and gain a deeper understanding of diverse perspectives.
We empower educators to integrate these essential topics into the classroom and equip their students with the tools to critically evaluate media and engage in meaningful conversations.
Our educational resources reflect the best practices of the country’s top independent and public schools. They promote empathy and respectful dialogue, and equip educators to support their students in evaluating media critically while also engaging in constructive conversations.
Our wider offerings empower educators within independent and public schools to integrate these essential topics into their classrooms, preparing students for academic success and informed citizenship. By fostering thoughtful and nuanced discourse, ConnectED helps build a more empathetic and informed next generation.
