🇦🇺 Social Media Influence (Level 03): Echo Chambers [Australian English]

When we only see posts or opinions that match our own, it can start to feel like everyone agrees with us. This video unpacks the idea of echo chambers, showing how algorithms and social circles can limit what we see online. Students explore how this affects their understanding of the world and how seeking out different perspectives can make them better digital citizens.

By learning to question what appears in their feed, students can think critically about information, spot bias, and engage with a wider variety of voices. Understanding echo chambers helps them become more open-minded and responsible participants in online discussions.
