Mucktracker is dedicated to promoting critical media literacy through innovative technological solutions. Our prototype platform and curriculum resources help students analyze, evaluate, and compare news sources in a teacher-supported environment.

In the sprit of the pioneering muckraker journalists of the past, we hope to inspire the next generation to better understand and shape the world around them.
