We live in an hyperconnected world with ongoing technological developments. Access to internet is uninterrupted from increasignly younger ages, and with that, we are exposed to enormous amounts of information and misinformation. In addition, we are not only passive consumers of information, we also create it.
It is necessary to provide students with resources and tools so they can learn how to compare and contrast information, assess mass media, recognize evidence, identify biases and politicized statements, distinguish between false and truthful information, and, also responsibly create and share their own content.
