To prepare students to handle unreliable and unscholarly materials on the internet, it is important to teach them critical thinking skills to evaluate sources, such as checking the author's credentials and verifying information from multiple reputable sources. Teaching students how to spot common red flags like bias, lack of citations, and sensationalist language can also help them discern reliable information from unreliable ones. Encouraging students to consult with librarians or teachers when in doubt can further support their ability to navigate and critically assess online sources.
