Module Check: Truth and Trust

You have reached the end of Module 3: Truth, Trust, and Misinformation. You have explored how to calibrate trust in AI, what hallucination is and why it happens, how deepfakes and synthetic media work, how to spot AI-generated content, how misinformation spreads, how to check sources, how to maintain healthy skepticism, and how to be a responsible sharer. This module check starts with a flashcard review of key vocabulary, then tests your understanding across every lesson, and finishes with a synthesis activity that brings it all together.

Module Check Questions

A student asks an AI for the capital of France and also asks it to list three scientific studies about ocean acidification. Which type of request carries higher hallucination risk?

What is the 'liar's dividend', and which technology primarily causes it?

The MIT study on social media found that false news spreads faster than true news. Which factor most directly explains this pattern?

Which of these is a sign of healthy skepticism rather than cynicism?

You discover you shared a post that contains a false claim. What is the most responsible course of action?

An image shows a dramatic event, but the hands of the people in it have six and seven fingers. What does this most likely indicate?

Module Synthesis: Your Personal Truth and Trust Guide

This synthesis activity asks you to demonstrate mastery of the entire module by creating something genuinely useful: a Personal Truth and Trust Guide you could give to a friend or family member who has never studied this material.
Your guide must be one to two pages long (or a poster, infographic, or slide deck if your teacher allows visual formats) and must include all of the following:
Section 1 — How Much Should You Trust an AI? Write three practical sentences explaining calibrated trust to someone who has never heard of it. Give one concrete example of a low-stakes AI question and one high-stakes AI question.
Section 2 — What is Hallucination? Explain AI hallucination in plain language. Include one real-world consequence of not knowing about hallucination (you may use the lawyer example from Lesson 2 or create your own scenario).
Section 3 — Deepfakes and Synthetic Media. Explain what a deepfake is and describe one way to spot AI-generated content that a non-technical person can actually use.
Section 4 — Before You Share. List your personal four-question checklist from the sharing lesson. Explain in one sentence why the pause matters.
Section 5 — Your Verification Toolkit. Name at least three tools or techniques someone can use to check a claim. Give one example of when each tool would be the right choice.
Section 6 — Skepticism, Not Cynicism. Write two sentences explaining the difference between healthy skepticism and cynicism, in language accessible to a twelve-year-old who has never taken this course.
When you are finished, share your guide with one person outside your class and ask them to tell you the one thing they found most useful and one thing they still have questions about. Report back to the class.
