SUMMARY:Information Landscape Workshops | Healthy Skepticism: Evaluating Online Health Information in the Age of Reddit and TikTok
DESCRIPTION:From trending health hacks on TikTok to deeply personal stories 
 shared in Reddit communities\; the internet has become a major source of 
 health information and support. These platforms can be incredibly 
 empowering\, but the viral nature of social media also means that 
 misleading or dangerous health claims can spread quickly and be hard to 
 spot. This workshop explores the complicated landscape of online health 
 information\, helping you think critically about what you see and share. 
 Through the lens of lateral reading—a strategy used by professional 
 fact-checkers to verify online claims—you will learn how to investigate 
 sources\, cross-check information\, and identify red flags. Using real 
 examples from social media\, we’ll walk through a step-by-step process 
 for evaluating a health claim. At the end of this workshop\, you’ll have 
 practical tools for navigating the flood of online health content with 
 greater confidence and care.
