Ejercicio 2

Problematic situation 2: There is a great deal of information that people consider to be scientific in nature, although it is not based on science. Because such information is shared throughout various media, disagreements and misinformation arise within the community.

  1. Identifico el problema: información que parece científica pero no lo es (pseudociencia o fake news).
  2. Reconozco el canal: se difunde por medios masivos y redes, lo que amplifica el error.
  3. Relaciono con las definiciones del ejercicio 1: facts se comprueban, beliefs y opinions no; evidence respalda un hecho.
  4. Concluyo que la solución es verificar la fuente y exigir evidencia antes de compartir.

Respuesta orientativa: La desinformación científica surge cuando se difunden creencias u opiniones como si fueran hechos comprobados. Para combatirla conviene contrastar la información con fuentes confiables, revisar si existe evidencia y distinguir entre un hecho verificable y una opinión personal.

Retrieval

On the one hand, there are texts called popular science texts, which are designed to share developments in science and help the public at large increase their knowledge and better support their opinions. On the other hand, there are news articles, whose purpose is to inform about events of collective interest, as well as to provide information that enables readers to create their own point of view about an event of public interest.

Respuesta orientativa: Los textos de divulgación científica explican avances de la ciencia para que el público amplíe sus conocimientos, mientras que los artículos periodísticos informan sobre hechos de interés colectivo para que el lector forme su propio punto de vista. Ambos buscan informar, pero el primero prioriza la comprensión de la ciencia y el segundo la actualidad noticiosa.
