News and Media worksheets for C1 Advanced English learners
Use news and media English when an advanced adult learner must follow, summarise, or discuss current events and judge how a source frames a story, for work briefings or professional conversation. Edooqoo lets the tutor set C1, add the adult learner's context, select a suitable exercise type, edit the draft, and collect follow-up evidence.

Teaching decision criteria
- Use this page when
- Use news and media English when an advanced adult learner must follow, summarise, or discuss current events and judge how a source frames a story, for work briefings or professional conversation.
- Do not use it when
- Do not turn the lesson into a vocabulary list of headline words when the learner cannot yet summarise an article in their own words; build the summary and stance skills first.
- Adult 1:1 task example
- The learner reads a short news report, summarises it in three sentences, then states and defends a view on how the story is framed, without reading from the text.
- Evidence of quality
- The learner paraphrases the report accurately, separates fact from opinion, and uses hedging and reporting language appropriate to the register.
