Course Description: Fake news or good science? In a world where we have access to unlimited information, it is hard to sift through the echo chamber of opinions fueled by emotions and personal biases, rather than scientific evidence. Science Literacy will teach you about the process of science, how to think critically, how to differentiate science from pseudoscience, how indigenous wisdom can inform science, how to understand and design a scientific study, and how to critically evaluate scientific communication in the media. Every module will build your new skill base with real-life examples, and at the end of each module, you will have to apply these skills to scientific questions, talking points, and controversies in the world. Warning: this course requires an open mind and the ability to self-reflect.
