Refuse to be Misled: Data Literacy in Everyday Life

COURSE

Course description

In a world filled with headlines, polls, and health claims, how can we tell what is true?

This course will explore how numbers and data are used—and misused—in everyday life. Using real-world examples, we will uncover tricks used to distort information, learn to interpret common charts and graphics, and discover simple, hands-on tools to question the claims we encounter.

No math background required—just curiosity.
