Truthfulness and Accuracy of the

Material Viewed
In this lesson, you will learn
how to evaluate materials
based on their truthfulness and
accuracy whether for a research
paper, a classroom discussion, or
an exchange of ideas with
friends or acquaintances.
 To determine the truthfulness of a material you
viewed, you should identify what is real and what is
fake. Most of the fake news are circulated through
videos in social media platforms like Facebook,
Instagram, Twitter, and Pinterest. We often decide to
trust them and forget to assess the quality of the
information itself.
