K12 AI Labs: Module 2, Lesson 5

Fact-Checking with AI and Human Sources trains students to be rigorous, skeptical, and effective consumers of AI-generated information. In a world where AI tools can produce confident, fluent, and completely wrong answers, this lesson is essential.

Students begin by experiencing AI hallucinations firsthand—submitting research queries to tools like ChatGPT and Perplexity AI and receiving responses that sound authoritative but contain factual errors, outdated information, or fabricated citations. The goal is visceral understanding, not just theoretical awareness.

From there, students learn a systematic fact-checking process: identifying specific claims in AI output, locating primary and secondary sources, and evaluating whether the evidence holds up. They practice tracing AI citations to their alleged sources—a skill that reveals just how often those sources don't say what the AI claims.

The lesson builds habits that extend far beyond AI: evaluating credibility, recognizing the difference between a source and a summary of a source, and understanding why verification matters even when information sounds right.

Students leave with a working fact-checking framework they can apply to any AI-generated content—in this class, in other subjects, and in the wider information environment they navigate every day.
