DEVELOPING DIGITAL DETECTIVES Essential Lessons for Discerning Fact from Fiction in the “Fake News” Era

Jennifer LaGarde & Darren Hudgins From the authors of the bestselling Fact vs. Fiction, this book offers easy-to-implement lessons to engage students in becoming media literacy ‘digital detectives’, looking for clues, questioning motives, uncovering patterns, developing theories and, ultimately, delivering a verdict. Rather than simply helping students become savvy information consumers, today’s educators must provide learners with the skills to be digital detectives – information interrogators who are armed with a variety of tools for dissecting news stories and determining what’s real and what isn’t in our “post-truth world”.
