About this Event

Longtime media educator Frank Baker will discuss why being media literate is so important, especially in amount of ads and posts that we will be experiencing in the lead up to the November elections.

Today's social media users have not been taught to think critically, or to recognize techniques of propaganda. Frank will identify clues and resources in order to verify what information is accurate.
