- Describe the challenge you want to address:
- Many people do not have a systematic approach to evaluating the credibility of a new source. people get news through social media and don't notice the name of the news source. When they clicked through to an article or video. Students in a college prep class i taught didn't have a clear idea what makes blogs organization websites and YouTube commentators are different from news agencies. difficulty evaluating information on the internet has serious implications for democracies.
- What is the solution to the challenge?
- I would develop and deliver a media literacy workshop that could be offered anywhere public high schools, community centers and libraries. I'd use forces groups to understand my target audiences, then create a participatory workshop. After finding out how they judge sources in add some other criteria. i'd use the literature on media literacy. I\nd introduce tools that rate sources on accuracy and political bias and fact checkers. Participants would find and political bias and fact checkers. participants would find different articles on a single event and compare coverage.
