In this time of pandemic, media is an essential tool to disseminate information about

assess the reliability and accuracy of the information before believing and sharing it on the
social media.

make our projects or assignments and we even share information as well. As a result, we are
prone to fake news. As a student, what are the things you can contribute to stop the
spreading of fake news?
