LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET

Title: Detecting and Decoding Bias, Misinformation and

Factual Information

BACKGROUND INFORMATION TO LEARNERS

Bias is the tendency to favor or oppose certain ideas, people, or groups in

a way that is unfair or one-sided. In contrast, factual information is objective and
based on verifiable evidence. This activity sheet aims to help you understand the
concept of bias and how to identify factual information in various contexts.

LEARNING COMPETENCY

Student will be able to analyze excerpts from a text and news articles to identify
factual information from misinformation. Provide examples of biased statements
you have encountered in the media, online, or in daily life.

Directions/Instructions: Divide yourself into 5-6 groups. Read the following

NEWS ARTICLES and examine how does it consider as biased information vs.
misinformation vs. factual information by answering the following guide
questions below on a 1 whole long bond paper. Distinguish the keywords or
phrases that affects your judgment. Provide supporting evidences to justify your
answers.

Guide questions:

1. Discuss with a partner or a group: How can bias influence the way we
perceive information? Cite examples of media biases that are rampant in
journalism.
2. Explain why you think those statements exhibit bias. What could be the
potential impact of such bias on readers?
3. Swap answers of activity sheets with a group and repeat the process.
Compare your findings and discuss any differences in interpretation.
4. Define factual information. How does it differ from opinion or bias?

NOTE: Present it in front of the class. Make sure you follow the rubrics
because this will be a group-based activity part of your WW and PT.
