Developing a Disinformation Response Competency Test

We’re developing a customisable test instrument to measure students’ tendency to spread fake news. The instrument is customisable to particular lesson topics. It is pilot tested on SUSS undergraduates and ‘O’- and ‘A’-Level school students. It will be used to measure the efficacy of the Ministry of Education’s geography curriculum in schools.


I’m excited about the prospect of finding an automatable, customisable and quickly scalable measure of tendency to spread fake news.
