Reading Mediations: Modeling Online Critical Literacy Strategies

Critical Reading Resources

The websites and platforms accessible from this page provide opportunities to explore a chosen news topic from different points of view, recognize how factual information may be presented in a biased way, and visualize the ways social media participates in the online media ecosystem.

AllSides.com allows users to compare how a topic or issue is presented in different media outlets, either through AllSides.com's home page feed or its search feature.  Hoaxy is a search and visualization tool that reveals how news and claims spread on social media; rbutr is a site that may help you locate articles and sources to support or rebut a claim or another article. These platforms all offer opportunities for further exploration beyond the Reading Mediations site. Use these sites as jumping off points for topical research on Twitter and in online media while making use of the resources provided and skills you've practiced on Reading Mediations.
