Instagram has quickly become a medium to share impactful, visual stories around the world. What began as a friendly photo-sharing app is now the way 1 in 10 Americans first hear about breaking news (Pew, 2020). In this session, we’ll give you some tips and tools to best share stories on the Instagram platform as well as lots of examples of accounts to follow who are using it well. If you already have an Instagram account, bring your phone and open up the app to follow along with hands-on tutorials.
