Making, Breaking (and Faking!) the News

Media informs, entertains and influences all of us. News, information and funny cats are available 24/7, but how do we know what’s accurate? Who can we trust? And how can we make our own media?

Making, Breaking (and Faking!) the News is an essential introduction to the media – what it is, how it works and who controls the information we absorb. Get set to investigate, understand, and then create content to help share the things that matter to you.

Expert educator Dr Stephanie Smith joins forces with internationally bestselling illustrator Philip Bunting to shine a light on the world of media.
