The term "fake news" has become widespread in the public lexicon, but a 2017 survey found that less than half of teenagers felt they could distinguish between real news and news that was patently made up. This collection of essays by experienced educators explores what fake news is, why students are susceptible to believing it, and how they can learn to identify it.
  • Description
  • Details

Authors also discuss why fake news is effective, show educators how they can teach their students to be critical consumers of the political media they encounter, and link these ideas to the broader task of civic education and critical engagement in the democratic process.
