Real vs. Make- Believe

By Katherine Arkaina

​Can you tell the difference?

​In an information-rich society , it's vital to remember that not all information you see or read are what they claim to be. Disinformation and misinformation are everywhere and they are meant to deceive you. In your search for knowledge, you will come across many websites and images. It is important to check, evaluate and verify what you see.   We can start from  differentiating  what is  real from make-believe images or  fact from non-fact statements, then we can apply that skill in different situations for enrichment.
