Q2: How do you approach teaching students about internet source reliability? #akedchat

verystillnorth May 8 @ 11:13 PM EDT

Source reliability for 6th grade- use multiple sources to verify. #akedchat

spiraledu May 8 @ 11:14 PM EDT

#Akedchat we do lots of google image searches, we started with discussions on: does that look real or does it look photoshopped?

verystillnorth May 8 @ 11:17 PM EDT

Getting kids to not just believe things the first time they see them was a big step. #akedchat

In reply to @rownbey

verystillnorth May 8 @ 11:23 PM EDT

Not too many folks tonight. Hope people are out enjoying the good weather and can add to the convo. later #akedchat

InspiredImpact May 8 @ 11:31 PM EDT

#akedchat A2:Best way is to take advantage of the teachable moment. When do the kids need to know? Find something unbelievable? Maybe it is!

Q2: How do you approach teaching students about internet source reliability? #akedchat

spiraledu May 8 @ 11:31 PM EDT

A2 We often just use google. I may need to be a little more purposeful in the future #akedchat

Q4: What do you teach kids about using social media as a research source? #akedchat

spiraledu May 8 @ 11:35 PM EDT

#akedchat My students love the believe it or not books. We do a lot of discussion on @Newsela articles, but not much fact checking

In reply to @InspiredImpact, @Newsela

verystillnorth May 8 @ 11:36 PM EDT

I found that my students would always just look at the first link on google and never dig. #akedchat

In reply to @spiraledu

InspiredImpact May 8 @ 11:36 PM EDT

#akedchat A4: Social media is a good way to gather information and possibilities, but facts should be researched elsewhere.

verystillnorth May 8 @ 11:35 PM EDT

Q4: What do you teach kids about using social media as a research source? #akedchat

spiraledu May 8 @ 11:38 PM EDT

#Akedchat we did talk about trusting Wikipedia. One of my students tried to edit their Komodo dragon article because he said they were wrong

In reply to @verystillnorth

verystillnorth May 8 @ 11:38 PM EDT

It's interesting to see how many legit news sources like @nytimes and @NPR are using social media in their stories #akedchat

In reply to @InspiredImpact, @nytimes, @NPR

InspiredImpact May 8 @ 11:38 PM EDT

#akedchat Everyone, students and non-students of all ages, need to become aware of info gained from URLs, as well as email addresses.

verystillnorth May 8 @ 11:38 PM EDT

Agreed. Many adults share things that are not true on social media, because they look true #akedchat

In reply to @InspiredImpact

verystillnorth May 8 @ 11:39 PM EDT

Interesting how the convo. about wikipedia has changed over the years. I now tell students it's a great source #akedchat

InspiredImpact May 8 @ 11:39 PM EDT

#akedchat The Google docs email virus going arnd last wk could have been arrested earlier if people had checked email address it came from.

verystillnorth May 8 @ 11:40 PM EDT

Yes, the whole hhhhh@hhhh was why I didn't open it. #akedchat

This is one story that I thought was fake, but is real #akedchat

Live painting from opening night presentation for @alaskarobotics Mini-Con in Juneau. Meant to paint something else, but changed midway.

InspiredImpact May 8 @ 11:42 PM EDT

#akedchat Today a man older than me told me he saw on FB a 7-wk baby saying "hello". Tried 2 gently ?,but he wasn't having anything of that!

Q5: How do you teach students to recognize that some things on the internet are real and some are fake? #akedchat

spiraledu May 8 @ 11:45 PM EDT

#akedchat what!?!

In reply to @verystillnorth

InspiredImpact May 8 @ 11:47 PM EDT

#akedchat A5: I would think authentic examples would be best, but don't teach this so don't have any in my pocket, except Tree Octopus.

verystillnorth May 8 @ 11:45 PM EDT

Q5: How do you teach students to recognize that some things on the internet are real and some are fake? #akedchat

verystillnorth May 8 @ 11:48 PM EDT

A5: I show many examples of things that look true, but aren't. #akedchat

verystillnorth May 8 @ 11:48 PM EDT

It took me some time to find authentic examples when I taught this a few weeks ago. Can share a few at some point. #akedchat

verystillnorth May 8 @ 11:50 PM EDT

A5: The story of a man found inside a huge python was a good one to dissect. #akedchat

InspiredImpact May 8 @ 11:51 PM EDT

I'll bet! Do you have a favorite protocol to dissect articles? #akedchat

In reply to @verystillnorth

InspiredImpact May 8 @ 11:54 PM EDT

Quiet night in #akedchat! I've really hated missing the last several weeks but have been way overloaded! Glad to be back :)
