We live in the Information Age... or the Disinformation Age. Finding out the truth in the vast amount of contradictory information is becoming increasingly difficult. Can the truth emerge when hundreds of people are asked to contribute evidence to support or disprove and unverified claim?
7. Successful Fact-Checking:
Crowdsourcing Critical Thinking
evidence not opinions avoid tools like ¡°like¡±
and upvotes for
answering questions
do not create bias by
displaying popular
content at the top
11. Why Crowdsourcing
? People are everywhere.
? Don¡¯t need that many people to reach the
person who knows the answer:
¨C Tag Challenge (500 unique visitors)
¨C Verily Pilot (2,000 unique visitors)
