“Bad News Game” Is Supposed To Teach Students Information Literacy

 

There are several free online games designed to teach information literacy, and you can find them at The Best Tools & Lessons For Teaching Information Literacy – Help Me Find More.

Now, there’s another one, and it’s called the Bad News Game.

I learned about it in today’s CNN story, Researchers have created a ‘vaccine’ for fake news. It’s a game.

Researchers claim playing it has been shown to improve people’s ability to spot misinformation.

The game site also offers free hand-outs to use with students.
