Help students discern fact from fiction in the information they access not only at school but in the devices they carry in their pockets and backpacks.The advent of the 24hour news cycle, citizen journalism and an increased reliance on social media as a trusted news source have had a profound effect not only on how we get our news, but also on how we evaluate sources of information, share that information and interact with others in online communities. When these issues are coupled with the fake news industry that intentionally spreads false stories designed to go viral, educators are left facing a new and challenging landscape. This book will help them address these new realities, providing strategies and support to help students develop the skills needed to effectively evaluate information they encounter online.The book includes: Instructional strategies for combating fake news, including models for evaluating news stories with links to resources on how to include lessons on fake news in your curricula. Examples from prominent educators who demonstrate how to tackle fake news with students and colleagues. A fake news selfassessment with a digital component to help readers evaluate their skills in detecting and managing fake news. A downloadable infographic with mobile media literacy tips.The companion jump start guide based on this book is Fighting Fake News: Tools and Strategies for Teaching Media Literacy.Audience: K12 educators

While the book covers important topics, I felt it could have delved deeper into certain areas. The exercises were good but a bit repetitive. It's decent for starters, but I was hoping for more comprehensive analysis.

Not What I Expected
Honestly, I was a bit disappointed. The content felt superficial and didn't provide enough actionable steps for critical thinking. I thought it would be more engaging and thorough based on the description. Wouldn't buy again.

Great for Parents Too!
I bought this for my teenage son, and it’s been a real eye-opener for him. He now approaches news differently and questions sources more critically. It’s a great read for parents wanting to teach kids about trust in media.

Mixed Feelings but Useful
I appreciate the effort in this book, but it had a few flaws. Some sections felt repetitive, and I think the layout could be better organized. However, it definitely provided some useful frameworks for discussions about fake news.
