The ease with which anyone can post false and misleading information online has been multiplied and compounded by the introduction of deep fakes, artificial intelligence, and social media in recent years. Recognizing fact from fake information is becoming more difficult and more important, and this course will present tools which will equip us with necessary skills to effectively navigate the digital world and help us become more digitally literate.
