I had to teach nurses media literacy in grad school (I was a TA for a class called Nursing Informatics, essentially a course about evidence-based practice, using EMR and information systems, etc. The instructional part of the course was entirely online, and I had to administer labs in person and do all of the grading and feedback, so I was their primary point of contact while they never even met the actual professor). One of their labs was to pick a site from a predetermined list, and evaluate whether or not the information presented was reputable. The results were quite disheartening, particularly because many of these people were adults that were re-training for new careers.
