LEARNING PATH
Follow the signal.
01Why we believe
+
Explore the role of emotion, cognitive shortcuts and identity in how we assess a claim.
Practice / Compare your first reaction to a message with the evidence it actually provides.
02Trace the source
+
Distinguish original evidence from repeated claims, unattributed screenshots and misleading context.
Practice / Follow a claim back to its origin and identify what is still unknown.
03Understand the system
+
Investigate how attention, recommendation systems and incentives shape what appears in a feed.
Practice / Map the path of a message through a digital community.
04Question synthetic media
+
Build an informed approach to AI-generated text, audio and imagery without assuming that appearance alone proves authenticity.
Practice / List the provenance checks needed before sharing a suspicious piece of content.
05Respond responsibly
+
Choose when and how to intervene, balancing evidence, empathy and the risk of amplifying a false claim.
Practice / Draft a constructive response that acknowledges uncertainty and points to evidence.
PROPOSED FORMAT
Small cohort. Active learning.
During the sessions

After the sessions
A comparable assessment and feedback inform the next version. Follow-up reflection explores application.
WHO IT IS FOR
