Media Literacy: Social Media

Question 1 • RKAA- Second Semester Civics and Citizenship 0.5 New

Maria sees someone share this post on social media. What can she do to evaluate the information in the post? Choose three correct answers.

Answer
A
investigate the user who shared the article
B
see whether reliable sources can confirm the claim
C
assume that the article is disinformation
D
email the source of the article and wait for their response
E
research the source’s claim to see whether it has a history

Explanation

Maria can check who shared the article, compare its claim with reliable sources, and research the claim to see whether it has a history or has been evaluated before. These steps help assess credibility using evidence. She should not assume the article is disinformation without checking, and simply emailing its source and waiting for a reply does not independently verify the claim.
