Think critically. Spot misinformation. Make informed choices.
Project Real is a University of Glasgow initiative developing research-informed resources to help young people navigate misinformation, evaluate online information and make informed choices.
This session explores the challenges young people face in an increasingly complex digital world and introduces free resources for use in schools and other educational settings.
Details
Join us for an interactive online session exploring young people’s experiences of misinformation and the challenges of deciding what to trust online.
Drawing on research and our work co-creating resources with young people and partners, we will consider how misinformation can affect young people’s understanding, decisions and wellbeing.
The session will introduce Project Real’s free resources and practical ways to support young people to question information, recognise misleading content and make more informed choices online.
Outcome
To raise awareness of the challenges young people face when navigating misinformation, introduce Project Real’s free resources, and explore practical ways to support critical evaluation of online information in educational settings.
