CSU TIMEPLUS FULL

The post was eventually taken down but goes to shows how easily people were swayed. Many commented that the protestors are a disgrace while few pointed out the falsehood of the image. The photo was taken of a London park months before the climate protest took place. While the protest and photo are real the whole truth hasn’t been told. (the Facebook post has since been deleted)Ī Facebook group Australian Youth Coal Coalition posted an image of a park covered in trash, they claimed that Hyde Park in Sydney had been trashed by climate protesters. Often fake news is spread to make readers believe a certain point or vote a certain way.

Half-truths and full liesįake news doesn’t need to be complete lies just not 100% truth the easiest lie to believe is one based on truth. (Wineburg & McGrew, 2017) Preventing fake news from being spread starts with being able to determine what is fake, as a digital learner that is the hardest part. In a study by Sam Wineburg and Sarah McGrew, they found that even academics can be misled into believing fake news, those who went and looked into the site where the fake news was published were nearly always able to determine fake from real. (Steinmetz, 2018) Does this mean that the article is fake news? To determine what is or isn’t fake news, a digital learner needs to investigate where the source of the information is coming from. One of the points Steinmetz makes is about sites with auto-playing flashy videos which is the first thing you see on the page. The interesting thing with this article is that the site it is on does exactly what Steinmetz points out as being not a good source of information. An article in the TIMES magazine “how your brain tricks you into believing fake news” by Katy Steinmetz points out some ways into spotting fake news. How do you prevent the spread of fake news if you can’t even tell what is real or fake? As an academic learner I have been taught what to look out for when it comes to good sources of information, so what happens when even academic can’t tell the difference. Even when trying to prevent the spread of fake news the reader can make it spread further just by interacting with the post. Some fake news may even hold some truth to it but not tell the whole truth to bias the readers view towards a particular agenda. Fake news can be a difficulty for even academics to spot, so some fake news can be hard to stop if the person sharing it is not aware that the information they are sharing is fake. Limiting explosive plays on defense and keeping the foot on the gas offensively will be keys for the Cougs in the second half.For an online digital learner, it is ethically unacceptable to spread fake news.įrom my academic learning experience, I believe that it is unacceptable for an online digital learner to spread fake news.
