Fake News (Teacher version)
Social media companies face increasing pressure to address the spread of fake news, with it majorly affecting public opinion in recent years. In this CBE, students will develop a position on what changes companies should make in their approach to dealing with fake news. The CBE offers use of extended literature and the ethical cycle procedure to make students develop arguments to support their position. The reasoned position will be orally presented, with other students arguing against it. Finally, the reasoned position (with rebuttal of objections) will be written down in a report.
