Ejercicio 1

In community, discuss the news you share with your family, friends, or other students. Ask the following questions.

Parte 1.a

Have you seen or read news on a social network that turned out to be false?

Respuesta orientativa: Yes, false news circulates frequently on social networks. For example, during health emergencies, messages about fake remedies or false cures spread quickly. It is important to verify the source before sharing any content.

Parte 1.b

Have you identified false information in political messages? What falsehoods?

Respuesta orientativa: Yes, political messages often contain manipulated data, out-of-context images, or promises that cannot be verified. A common falsehood is attributing statements to candidates that they never made. Citizens should compare information with official sources.

Parte 1.c

Can you trust all the information you find online or on social networks? Why?

Respuesta orientativa: No, not all online information is trustworthy. Anyone can publish content without verification, so it is necessary to check the author, the date, and whether other reliable media report the same fact.

Parte 1.d

What implications can spreading false news have on health, society, or the economy?

Respuesta orientativa: In health, false news can cause people to reject vaccines or use dangerous remedies. In society, it generates panic, discrimination, and distrust. In the economy, rumors can cause panic buying, price increases, or investment losses.

Parte 1.e

How does the fact that authorities hide important information, avoid accountability, or alter information for electoral purposes affect democratic life?

Respuesta orientativa: When authorities hide or alter information, citizens cannot make informed decisions. This weakens transparency, erodes trust in institutions, and damages democracy because voting and public debate lose credibility.

Parte 1.f

Why is it important for everybody to have access to trustworthy information?

Respuesta orientativa: Trustworthy information allows people to make free and responsible decisions about health, politics, and daily life. It is a fundamental right recognized in Article 6 of the Mexican Constitution and a condition for a functioning democracy.

Ejercicio 2

In communities, research information about which country in Latin America has the biggest problem with an infodemic and what the topic that generates the greatest infodemic is.

Respuesta orientativa: According to studies by UNESCO and fact-checking organizations, Brazil and Mexico are among the Latin American countries most affected by infodemics. In Brazil, the greatest infodemic has been related to elections and health (COVID-19). In Mexico, the topics that generate the most false information are security, elections, and health. The most affected topic in the region is public health, followed by electoral processes.

Finding the Cause

Article 6 of the Constitución Política de los Estados Unidos Mexicanos establishes access to public information as a fundamental right of the Mexican people. As such, the State must generate the conditions to access this right. Just as important, information must be clear, true, and diversified. However, instead of clarifying, excess information can confuse and weaken the right to information.

There is a phenomenon called infodemic, which consists of information overload or the availability of a huge amount of information. It makes it difficult for people to find trustworthy sources about a specific topic. Infodemic is not necessarily negative. For example, when students are asked at school to research democracy, they can access the internet and, within seconds, find endless information. Instead, the problem arises when information consumers need help distinguishing between trustworthy and untrustworthy information or, due to excess data, find it challenging to identify the most important aspects of the content.
