HCCS Social Media and Misleading Information Discussion

 

I’m working on a biology question and need support to help me learn.

With increased access to information, social media is filled with a lot of untrue or misleading information. Consider your use of social media and answer the following with at least 250 words:

  1. How often do you think about what you are reading on social media?
  2. Have you encountered any “fake” media pieces? How did you know they were unreliable?
  3. What do you look for to identify the reliability and validity of a source?
  4. How can “fake news” impact society and science?
