Describing itself as “the world’s most interactive museum,” the Newseum provides numerous online resources for journalism students and teachers.  Among them are virtual exhibits of the history of printed news, a gallery of Pulitzer prize-winning photos and photographers, and a 9/11 gallery.

There are current articles about the press, such as the six-year decline in press freedoms around the world.  You can also view the front pages of more than 500 newspapers from dozens of countries — plenty of ideas for layouts for your school paper.  The section on education has resources and contest information for teachers and students.

Although the museum closed in 2019, the online resources are still available as of this writing.

The interactive Printing Press is designed to assist students in creating newspapers, brochures, flyers, and booklets. Teachers and students can choose from several templates to publish class newspapers, informational brochures, and flyers announcing class events. The tool allows for multiple pages as appropriate. Text added to the templates can be modified using a simple toolbar, which allows students to choose text features, such as font size and color. Documentation for the Printing Press includes folding and printing instructions, as well as an extensive Guide to using the tool. Customized versions of the tool, which include additional instructions and more focused choices, are included with some lessons. A basic planning sheet is available to help students gather ideas before working at the computer.
