“And,” the student continues, “the Mayo Clinic is the same way. They make money off of patients so they want to portray regular hospitals as working.”
If this is the case then what sources can really be trusted if every source says certain things to make a profit?

they don’t want to spend their trust anywhere, and they think many things are equally untrustworthy.
I was taught to not trust easily and to ask questions so I do understand why people may believe that many things are equally untrustworthy.

that is, articles or videos that look like news content, and which appear to have gone through a journalistic process, but which are actually made up.
fact-checking is very important nowadays because anything can appear to be real. I've definitely come across a good amount of articles and videos that I think are real at first but eventually find out that they contain fake information.

the properties of its author (were they verified?), the kind of language it used (was it sophisticated?)
Could information still be fake even if it is from a verified author who is sophisticated? Now a days, anyone can become verified on twitter.

Is demanding the purge of racist symbols and figures in effect denying our history and stiflingthe free exchange of ideas? If we try to erase all traces of Wilson, who goes next? Perhapssomeof the names andimages should be removed? How do we decide? Where does it all end?
I don't believe that we should ever stop teaching about the atrocious acts that have happened in the past but these very symbols/artifacts that are linked to the oppression of other groups shouldn't be proudly displayed on campuses, especially when it makes students uncomfortable.

There is no one-size-fits-all strategy for teaching
I think this goes for in person classes as well as online classes. Each professor should be able to teach the way they think will be the most effective but they should be open to change especially as technology changes

I was writing for a grade — I was no longer exploring for me.
I feel like a lot of people stress out when professors assign them papers because they want it to be perfect and meet the professors criteria. Even when I talk to my friends, they tell me that they dread writing papers because they often have to follow prompts and aren't allowed to freely explore. If a lot more of the things we did in classes weren't for grades, I believe students would enjoy and appreciate the process more.
