Unrelated to ChatGPT, fact checking seems like a great exercise for schools to teach modern tech literacy. Imagine doing this with a tweet, a random anecdote, a video clip, etc.
What sources to use? What search engines to use? How do you distinguish or balance information found via a conspiracy theory website vs. a well funded "think tank" vs. something more academic?! I would love to learn this myself.

- williamcotton 4y agoMy wife is currently writing a book on the effects of technology on education with two of her PhD advisers. She's also an eighth-grade US history teacher at a public school. At the end of this semester I'm going to help her with some experimental curriculum for her students geared around using LLMs like ChatGPT. The goal of the book is both theoretical and practical. There will be lesson plans for teachers developed from her actual experience with students based on the exact kind of epistemological questions that you're asking.
