We live in a time where information is readily and widely available, spread faster than ever befoe and through an increasing amount of channels. This applies to information you use for your work, study and private life.
However, not all information you come across while scrolling through news and social media is equally reliable. You may also encounter fake news, especially on social media. Without the correct information you cannot form an adequate and well-founded opinion. The ability to critically assess information has therefore become increasingly important. In this training you will learn how to do that.
The training consists of 6 modules. Each module contains an explenation and sometimes an additional video. You will also find links to background information. After module 4 and 6 you will be able to take a short quiz to check whether you have understood the information thus far. Click on the 'Next' button at the bottom right of this screen to start.
