[WebPub] News literacy over the internet

[Jonathan Brough]

Hi,
I am studying what web 
technologies can be used to promote News Literacy*, enabling news consumers to 
educate themselves about civic issues. Using an online survey I am 
sourcing the opinions of those versed in how web content is 
presented and processed.
As a member of this mailing list my hope is that this will be of interest to you. If 
you can spare approximately 3 minutes to complete this survey, located at
 https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/LKKDQBG, I would be most grateful and 
gladly forward you on the results in the new year.
Kind regards,
Jonathan

* News Literacy has been defined as "how to use critical thinking skills to judge the 
reliability and credibility of news reports and news sources" (The 
Center for News Literacy, Stony Brook University) and "[the provision 
of] tools to be smarter and more frequent consumers and creators of 
credible information across all media and platforms" (Alan Miller, The 
News Literacy Project)
