Did you know that students in schools with at least some NIE programs do better on standardized reading tests than those in schools with no NIE programs? According to a recent Newspaper Association of America (NAA) Foundation study, students in schools with News In Education (NIE) programs did 10 percent better than students in schools that had no NIE program.

The Tampa Tribune's NIE program promotes the use of newspapers as an integral part of the academic program. With training and a variety of curriculum resources, teachers make The Tampa Tribune a living textbook that features current, real-world information.

Using the newspaper and NIE curriculum on a regular basis helps students develop daily reading habits that they will carry through their lives.

The Tampa Tribune provides a vital link to the real world for students who too often do not realize the value of their academic programs. The study of today's critical issues, events and people helps students understand the past and see a role for themselves in their future world.

The Tampa Tribune's NIE program has created teacher guides to coincide with the content in The Tampa Tribune. All teacher guides are written and researched by The Tampa Tribune’s NIE department.
