Creative activities show students how to distinguish the genuine from the specious in the world of news.
Directly addressing the near-constant stream of information students today encounter, the activities emphasize avoiding information overload, identifying authentic and trustworthy sources, prioritizing accuracy over speed, and overcoming personal bias. Among the many engaging activities are "Wikipedia Golf," "Two Abraham Lincolns and a Pinocchio," and "Collecting Multiple Perspectives."
