It’s an online world mostly, these days. And students are bombarded with so much information - it is hard to tell fact from opinion. Very hard.

Subscribers. Download below, a nice set of materials for helping with this aspect of media literacy. Fact vs Opinion.

You can use it in a very simple way. In pairs or small groups, students read out the statements to each other. Is it a fact or an opinion? (use the pptx to introduce and discuss what both are). Check against the answer key or take up as a group. You might also use our interactive video version.

We have many lesson resources for teaching other aspects of media literacy. Check them out. These videos, also outline some important aspects related to Fake News. Or see Life Skills 101 - a timeless classic related to media literacy.

Happy teaching and learning.
