In today’s world, we can find answers to almost anything with just a few clicks. Need the latest news? Looking for health advice? Researching a history essay? Craving that perfect pasta recipe? A quick internet search can provide answers in seconds. But with this convenience comes a big challenge: not everything you find online is true or reliable. That’s why it’s so important to learn how to search for credible information. Dr Philippa Smith, PhD in Communication and Language, is teaching a short workshop on Sunday 23 June 2024 to boost digital literacy and to build confidence and competence in finding trustworthy information online.
