In this class we'll get below the surface of information online—news, advertising, social media, and more. Which is more reliable: cable news, news from a TikTok influencer, a rumor from your friend, or a claim you read about on a site you can't quite remember? Are any of these sources sincere? Which of them are interested in good information, and which of them are just interested in attention and entertainment? Join us in our semester-long Media Literacy course as we explore these questions and a host of others. Our goal will be to uncover what's going on below the surface when we're online, to see if we can develop more confidence and discernment in our noisy and chaotic information environment. Check out the course syllabus to see the planned course outline (though keep in mind that I reserve the right to edit this based on student needs and interests! I will inform you if any changes occur :) All of the content students need to learn each week's new concepts is included in the course, either as pre-recorded video, assigned reading, or an assignment that will help them practice what they've read and watched. I am available for questions via the Outschool messaging system throughout the week.
