What power does the media have? What responsibility do we have to check it? Answer the above questions in the area above the water. List everything you already know about 'freedom of speech and social media.'
Beneath the Surface
After watching the story, answer the following questions in the area of the iceberg under the water: What happened? What choices were made in this situation? By whom? Who was affected? When did it happen? Where did it happen? What factors influenced the particular choices made by the individuals and groups involved in this event? Can they be corroborated by multiple sources? Is it true or is it 'fake news?'
Debrief
This step is often best done in groups so that students can brainstorm ideas together.Prompts you might use to guide journal writing and/or class discussion include:
1) What did you learn from completing your iceberg?
2) What questions do you still have and what more would you like to know?
3) How does the information in this iceberg help you better understand the world we live in today?
