Dr. Sam Wineburg, Stanford University’s Margaret Jacks Professor of Education, Emeritus, will present a timely lecture drawn from Verified: How to Think Straight, Get Duped Less, and Make Better Decisions about What to Believe Online (2023), co-authored with Mike Caulfield. In an era of misinformation and information overload, Dr. Wineburg examines how people evaluate online claims and why even well-educated readers can be misled. Grounded in research and practical examples, the lecture will discuss the significance of verifying digital content and making more informed judgments about what to trust online.
