The CRAAP test article has a very brief section on Alternatives. I would like to expand this section to include research from the Stanford History Education Group finding that students of all ages rarely fact-check information. These researchers found that, while college students and faculty use checklist approaches (like the CRAAP test) to "read vertically," expert fact-checkers "read laterally," meaning that they quickly leave the original content to check claims and verify sources. However, college students can be taught the fact-checking strategies of expert fact-checkers. The American Association of State Colleges and Universities organized the Digital Polarization Initiative in which college and universities in the United States are incorporating fact-checking instruction into their courses.
