Pedagogies of Post-Truth explores the national and international
political developments in what has been called a post-truth
society; specifically, in which conservative groups target media
outlets claiming fabrication of news and that the veracity of
evidence-based reporting should be questioned. Truth has been
reduced to the validation of opinions instead of the presentation
of scientific facts. This collection responds to these issues by
initiating a scholarly dialogue about teaching in the era of
post-truth in which research-based findings that do not align with
political viewpoints are judged, criticized, and often described as
"fake." Contributors evaluate the pedagogical challenges of
post-truth discourse and how post-truth messages negatively affect
instructors and students. By highlighting ways instructors and
students can resist the hegemony of post-truth, this book creates a
dialogue among scholars, illustrates the challenges, and offers
pedagogical techniques to discuss "post-truth," the role of the
educator, the role of media, and the role of other story-makers of
our society.
