What is fake in this posting?

A quick, essential check list from NPR's  Five Ways Teachers Are Fighting Fake News (...and find what is fake in this posting 😀)

  • 1. Do you know who the source is, or was it created by a common or well-known source? Example National Geographic, Discovery, etc.
  • 2. How does it compare to what you already know?
  • 3. Does the information make sense? Do you understand the information?
  • 4. Can you verify that the information agrees with three or more other sources that are also reliable?
  • 5. Have experts in the field been connected to it or authored the information?
  • 6. How current is the information?
  • 7. Does it have a copyright?
