With Election Day 2024 around the corner, it can be difficult to distinguish between biased news stories and coverage, artificial intelligence (AI), and deep fakes on social media. It often affects our choices for candidates running in local, state, and national offices. Presented through a non-partisan lens by Nico Casas, librarian from IU Northwest, learn how to identify misinformation on the web through lateral reading techniques. This session will include viewing news on popular social media networks, recognizing deep fakes, AI, and tools used by professional fact checkers.
*In-Person Session: This session will take place at the IU Northwest campus. Location specifics (i.e., building and room number) are provided to registrants via a confirmation letter that is sent after registration.
