How do you know if a claim, image, or video is real or completely fake? Join us for a fun, 90s-inspired session where science meets media literacy in surprising and practical ways. We will explore how students can use evidence, questioning, and critical thinking to break down misleading content and think like scientists. You will dig into unexpected examples, analyze tricky visuals, and try out strategies you can use right away. Participants will walk away with classroom-ready tools aligned with the Science and Engineering Practices. Expect an energetic throwback vibe, hands-on investigations, and ideas that will level up your science instruction.
