How do you simultaneously teach critical thinking and protect science? Earlier in April Renee Hobbs and Chris Sperry held a webinar with a discussion focusing on teaching about distorted science. It explained how to let students decide what to believe when the science is clear – and imperative. If you would like to learn more about the boundaries, cautions and considerations in using false or deceptive science in media literacy lessons, you can watch the recorded video. The webinar took place on April 13 and is now available on YouTube.
