MAKE SURE your reference list includes Ruggiero, the Ted talk, and the two websites.

  1. Read chapter 2 carefully https://brytewave.redshelf.com/library/
  2. Watch the TED talk by Markham Nolan:  How to Separate Fact and Fiction Online.
    https://www.ted.com/talks/markham_nolan_how_to_separate_fact_and_fiction_online#t-149009
  3. Explore these two sites—one a legitimate corporate sponsored site, the second, videos from a copy-cat site (the actual site has been taken down) with a very similar look.

Discussion Prompt: In 300 words or less, write on BOTH of these two questions:

Make sure you refer to the content from chapter three as part of your reflection.  Specifically cite an element of the W.I.S.E Approach.

  1. What did you learn that you can apply to your own discipline of thinking?   Have you had classmates/patients/clients share something from the internet where you questioned the source?
