Civics Engagement April 15, 2010

PROMPT: Researching and designing your game has shown you how many different ways the same information can be presented to an audience. Based on your Globaloria game-making experience, how do you feel about the way news and other sources might similarly manipulate information about civics? Do you have any advice for other students who want to seek out reliable media outlets? Please write 4 or more sentences

I think different news stations and such manipulate facts in their own way. If all you heard were some of the headlines instead of facts as well, you might misconstrue what's actually going on in the world. Some stations seem to leave information out, and that leaves you wondering about everything else. I think if you decide to use media for information you need to double check their facts with another source.
