This assignment is from Hands-On AI Projects for the Classroom: A Guide for Secondary Teachers, on the ISTE website. The summary from the site explains:
In this project . . . students will be challenged to learn about several AI-supported tools that are used to create and/or distribute information—both reliable information and disinformation. Class members will work in pairs or small groups to identify important topics in the news, and design 1–2 page plans describing how AI-supported tools could be employed to create and disseminate information campaigns, using both reliable information and disinformation, on those topics. Student teams will share their plans with the class.
