Task Description:
This week we had to read texts from news articles and research if the article was real or fake. We found out how to decide whether a post was fake or not by researching on the web and even reading it to see if it sounded real or ridiculous.
Here are three things we used to spot the crime:
- Researching the headline online to see if any ligit sites also had the same article.
- Also Just reading the headline and article was easy to tell if they were real or not.
- our BRAINS!
Hi Toby,
ReplyDeleteYou did really well thinking critically about these texts. You brought up a fantastic point about people exaggerating stories or retelling them differently. This comes up a lot in opinion pieces, when a journalist is sharing what they think about a topic as they won't tell the full story.
