Uman nauso man jaon tagalong na
fake news? Filtering relevant information is a skill
related to reading.
The
Philippines shared a significant rate of low performers among all
PISA-participating countries and economies. That is, 80% of the Filipino
students did not reach the minimum level of proficiency in reading. Their poor
scores in English, Mathematics, and Science are attributed to the students’
lack of ability in basic reading and comprehension.
On
the latest research conducted by this writer, one factor on reading preference
is the availability of reading materials at home. And, based on the themed
qualitative data, the reading materials available at home is almost zero.
So
how can we expect people to develop the skill of inference?
Making
an inference involves using what you know to make a guess about what you don't
know or reading between the lines. Readers who make inferences use the clues in
the text along with their own experiences to help them figure out what is not
directly said, making the text personal and memorable.
Proficient
readers use their prior knowledge and textual information to draw conclusions,
make critical judgments, and form unique interpretations from text. Inferences
may occur in the form of conclusions, predictions, or new ideas (Anderson and
Pearson, 1984).
Based
on the presented discourses, we then can lead to a hypothesis that there is a
correlation between reading proficiency to the proliferation of fake news. Those
who look for a specific information will directly believe what is presented to
them without inference and the critical filtering of what is true and fake.
Reading
programs fail in schools when learners do not have support from their families.
Most of the good readers in schools come from families who read.
The
statistics of poor reading comprehension in schools will then create more
people who cannot give an argument what is presented to them.
Isahay, an mga himasa pa noon
an malupos nan mga panrason nan mga trolls.
