the bits and pieces required to recognize ‘fake news’ should already be a part of a required curriculum at a public high school; and i do remember some exercises in one class in particular that compared tabloids to mainstream newspapers. this was in the 1980s, in a fairly progressive part of minnesota.
Silly boy, education is the secondary purpose to school for conservatives. The primary purpose is to create obedient worker drones that do what they’re told.
Critical thinking skills are always antithetical to that.
A lot of shit was fucked up by standardized testing and what not. Not bashing the concept just its current implementation. So this is probably one of the easier ways to do this.
