MY HERO Virtual Poster Session at ISTE Live 2024 Saturday, June 22, 2-2:50 pm (EDT)

Heroes give us hope and inspiration. In our globally connected world, we have a great opportunity to learn from one another, to exchange stories, art, and films that honor those who are tackling the great challenges of our time and working to improve the quality of life for all. MY HERO uses media, art, and technology on MY HERO to celebrate the best of humanity, one story at a time. Together with teachers and students, professional writers, artists, and filmmakers, we have been building an online library of hope that is used in classrooms around the world. Students are encouraged to become reporters and to use their skills as writers, artists, and filmmakers to shine a light on local and global heroes in their lives.

Teachers have access to tutorials, and lesson plans curated by the MY HERO staff, as well as other resources, that are available in the MY HERO Teachers Room. Educators are given access to tools to manage and curate their students' work and to create media playlists from our library filled with thousands of stories, art, and films to enrich learning in their classrooms around the world. MY HERO is an online journal, library, and storytelling platform that is child-friendly, commercial-free, and serves as a resource for millions of students and life learners online around the world. Learn how to curate media that you can use with your students.
