By the end of this four week course learners should feel confident in their ability to consume news with greater literacy, to identify mis-information and bias, to identify the difference between opinion and fact-based reporting and to critically analyze fact-based information to help inform their own personal opinions about society and the current events of the day. 

Prior to my law degree I was a Coro Fellow in Public Policy trained in communication and the identification of public policy sourcing.  Within my law career it is essential to critically analyze information and identify bias and perspective.  Further, I have taught course on this subject for the past four years on Outschool.
