The focus is upon providing a resource for educators to develop "news literacy" skills of students in objectively evaluating the news.

Recenzii

Is there a subject that we need to study as urgently as the matter of what is, and is not, fake news? Social media have provided a platform for the dissemination and absorption of untruths in a way our ancestors could not have dreamed of-with what now looks like grotesques implications for societal progress, citizenship, and the social contract. Janke and Cooper could not be writing at a better time and their excellent and very readable exploration of this topic should be on every teacher's (and teacher trainer's) reading list.
Our democracy depends on a citizenry that can evaluate 'facts' and distinguish between accurate and fake news. This book serves as vital resource for educators and students in a period of cyber warfare-and political attacks on the news media.
With the explosion of various forms of social media and their use in the widespread distribution of fake news, there has never been a previous time in our nation's history when it has been more important to inform our students with the knowledge to separate the true from the false. This timely book provides teachers with valuable information to impart in an effort to combat a serious threat to our democracy.
