With all the information available on the internet, much of which might be considered unreliable by one and reliable by another (mainline media sources verses non mainline media sources, for example), I would give students a guide for discerning what materials are reliable and useful for scholarly purposes. I would expect them to use them to judge for themselves, but I would point out materials that might not be good choices and give the reasons.

For example, students can be taught not to take studies, polls, etc. at face value, but to delve deeper to find how the study was done and details of the study in order to determine the validity for themselves.

Students can also be taught to research more when they find articles and information that present things they are not familiar with or could have opposing views. For example, climate change, 9/11, the world economy, etc. They could use the guidelines to determine reliable from unreliable sources.

How would you prepare the student to handle the unreliable and unscholarly materials found in the interne?

To prepare students to handle unreliable and unscholarly materials on the internet, it is important to teach them critical thinking skills to evaluate sources, such as checking the author's credentials and verifying information from multiple reputable sources. Teaching students how to spot common red flags like bias, lack of citations, and sensationalist language can also help them discern reliable information from unreliable ones. Encouraging students to consult with librarians or teachers when in doubt can further support their ability to navigate and critically assess online sources.
