From Fake News to Fact Finders: Empowering Student Decision Making and Science Literacy
Thursday February 6, 2025 10:15am - 11:15am MST
ECC - Salon 05

Our hope as educators is that we can equip and empower our students with the skills necessary to navigate this world, especially in times of urgency and of uncertainty. When it comes to science related topics, educators play a crucial role in providing the necessary tools and skills to bolster their scientific literacy, so that they can feel confident talking about these topics, but also in making crucial decisions in their day to day lives.
