Fact vs. Fiction
Jennifer LaGarde
Get the strategies and tools you need to help students discern fact from fiction in the information they access at school and on the devices they carry in their pockets and backpacks.
The advent of the 24-hour 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 helps them address these new realities.
“A thought-provoking resource for teachers and librarians seeking to foster their students' critical thinking.” - Laura Fields Eason, Parker Bennett Curry Elementary School, Bowling Green, Kentucky, School Library Journal
