It is also becoming fragmented, less peaceful and...
6 tips for teens on how to develop critical thinking
My name is Marianna and I am 19 years old. I live in Kyiv, Ukraine. We all know how important it is for young people to stay safe and savvy online. With the rise in 'fake news’, experts have warned us to check sources carefully, pay attention to manipulative headlines and think twice about the stories we share with friends. Like me, you have probably heard these tips many times. But I didn’t truly become media literate until I took the time to develop critical thinking.
