In our efforts to help educators teach students strategies for evaluating the credibility of sources, we recently released the Source credibility pack
, which contains over thirty classroom-ready files to be used and adapted for middle school, high school, and higher education classrooms.
These resources are designed around the Source credibility guide
, which proposes a six-step process for evaluating the credibility of sources. Each step in the process is organized as a lesson with corresponding practice activities. Example resources include an educator guide, lessons (videos and slides), practice hand-outs, pre/post assessments, and a rubric trait.
While some educators may decide to only access a few resources to target instructional or intervention needs, others may decide to integrate the source credibility resources as a comprehensive unit. The downloadable PDF below provides a suggested lesson sequence for educators interested in integrating these resources as a unit.
