Title

We live in an age where information on any topic is easy to find online. And that’s great! But how do we know if the information is real or fake? What steps can we take to ensure that we are getting the most accurate information from sources we can trust? Why is this so important in our everyday lives and in an academic context? These are some of the questions we will explore in this course. In addition, you will understand what kind of evidence you can find online to support your own ideas. Learning to acknowledge the sources you used will be another focus of this course. Keep in mind, participation is a key to learning; it will help you remember what you learn, and it will give you opportunities to practice, so do your best to participate in class. Our virtual classroom is a safe place to learn and make mistakes!
