Unboxed™ Influencer

Grade Level: Grades 9-10          Event Type: In-Person, Technology Supported       

Learning Objectives: Information Literacy/Detecting Misinformation

Unboxed™ Influencer presents students, who make up a group of up-and-coming social media influencers, with the opportunity to sign a potentially lucrative brand ambassador contract.  After learning more about the product and company though, will they risk the potential liabilities that also come with the proposal?  This challenge develops students' information literacy skills to evaluate the information they are presented with and identify misinformation.
