It’s getting harder to tell what’s real and what’s not. From AI-generated videos to misleading headlines, fake reviews, and online scams, the line between truth and reality is less clear than ever, especially for anyone navigating new technology.This timely and practical workshop h elps participants make sense of what they’re seeing online and feel more confident in their everyday decisions. We break down how misinformation spreads, how AI is changing what we see, and—most importantly— how to spot red flags and verify information quickly. Participants will explore real-world examples, learn simple “ pause and check” strategies, and walk away with tools they can use immediately —whether they’re reading the news, browsing social media, or receiving a suspicious message. This program is designed to be engaging, discussion-based, and easy to follow—no technical background required. Program is free and no registration required.
