Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Fake news, false and distorted news material; is nothing new. It's been a part of media history long before the advent of social media. But with the speed and reach that powerful digital technology and social media provide, information pollution has spread like wildfire in our rapidly changing world. Now more than ever, students need to develop their critical reading and thinking skills. This extensively researched book will provide educators in all subject areas and grade levels, the tools and lessons to: help learners become highly competent critical readers of all kinds of texts, and critical consumers of datahelp students recognize, interrogate, and responsibly deal with fake news, the New Propaganda or information pollutionhelp learners understand how these kinds of mis-, dis- and mal-information work and how they are powerfully tailored, curated, and disseminated to them in highly targeted and manipulative ways by artificial intelligence (AI) and social mediahelp learners understand how these kinds of mis-, dis- and mal-information work and how they are powerfully tailored, curated, and disseminated to them in highly targeted and manipulative ways by artificial intelligence (AI) and social mediaand help to recognize and fight ungrounded skepticism: the ignorance or dismissal of established, credible data from across reliable sources, including the pretense that science does not exist or that established scientific findings can be roundly discounted.
