Sorting Out the Bad but Bringing in Filter Bubbles

Tärning, Betty LU ; Ternblad, Eva Maria LU ; Gulz, Agneta LU and Haake, Magnus LU (2023) 17th International Conference of the Learning Sciences, ICLS 2023 In Proceedings of International Conference of the Learning Sciences, ICLS p.1971-1972
Abstract

Being information literate, i.e. being able to critically evaluate information and arguments in relation to empirical evidence, is extremely important. Our study combines learning science and drama to explore if 6th grade students can grasp certain aspects of information literacy, such as fake news and filter bubbles. By analyzing free-text responses we concluded that the students are aware of the problems with fake news but have a very vague and naïve view of filter bubbles.
