Transforming Science Education in an Age of Misinformation Douglas Allchin Carl T. Bergstrom Jonathan Osborne Abstract Misinformation and disinformation about science have reached alarming levels. Here, we summarize a recent expert report, Science Education in an Age of Misinformation, that outlines what science education can do to address this problem and, given the urgency, has to do. We highlight the significance of teaching how the social practices of science contribute to establishing a trustworthy consensus and how students should evaluate the credibility of second-hand claims reported in the media or on the internet. We focus on the concepts of epistemic dependence on experts, competent outsiders, credibility, expertise, consensus, deceptive tactics, and science media literacy.

    Douglas Allchin, Jonathan Osborne, and I have a new paper out about teaching science in this age of online misinformation.

    The idea is simple: we tell people to trust the science, but we rarely teach students about the social processes that make it trustworthy.
