Part 1: Fake News
Find an article or video online that you believe to be fake news. Explain why it is fake news. Then imagine that you are having coffee/breakfast/dinner or other visit with a friend, and your friend tells you about hearing this exact news. Your friend believes it is real. Write out what you would tell your friend to help him/her understand fake news and the potentially dangerous consequences.
For your Part 1 Response to Others , comment on a minimum of one student’s assertion that the article or video is fake news. Do you agree or disagree, and why? Share other recommendations that the student might say to his or her friend.
