|---|---|
| Course Section Number: | RHE-270-01 |
| Department: | Rhetoric |
| Description: | Research shows that most Americans get their news from social media at the same time we know that misinformation runs rampant on those platforms. In a society built on the principle of free speech, how do we ensure that the information we receive is reliable? This course engages communication scholarship that explores the nature and scope of misinformation, prominent case studies, and media literacy tactics that students can implement to guard against misinformation. Students will generate several short assignments with the possibility of creating a public information campaign. 1st half semester course |
