"Making sense of search results...."  We are still trying to teach seniors this skill.

Students struggle to reason about information.  They can't distinguish between ads and news.  Students focus on content, not necessarily credibility of the source.

This goes along with what Cory said. "old school" needs to work with "new school"

As more information becomes available it is increasingly harder for students to distinguish between credible and "fake".   Teaching how make this distinction is extremely important, but must be be done at a younger age.

We are not as smart as we think!  Even university students - who should be questioning materials that they are reading for bias, and accuracy are easily duped.  

What is the take away?

How do we work with students to make sure they are able to use real news?

While students are unable to identify sponsored content, I question adult's ability to question the content as well. We may need to start with training for adults/teachers so that we can roll out that information to our students. I think that I may be "tricked" as well because of my lack of training or awareness.

My biggest takeaway is that we are far too late when students are seniors. We teach methods for checking source credibility. This needs to be done in 6th grade. I assume students have these skills, but based on the article, they don't.

The idea of digital literacy in 2019 means that we need to start teaching this at home at a young age.  Digital literacy should be taught from the elementary years, through middle school and into high school.  Hopefully that could balance content with media sources.

"This finding indicates that students may focus more on the content of social media posts than on their sources," the authors wrote. "Despite their fluency with social media, many students are unaware of basic conventions for indicating verified digital information."

This is a scary thought.

I agree with: The authors worry that democracy is threatened by the ease at which disinformation about civic issues is allowed to spread and flourish.
