SUMMARY:Education\, Society and Culture UCL Masterclass: Topic - Nonsense and Knowledge: Finding Our Way in a Confusing World
DESCRIPTION:Location: Online \nEvent Information: *Deadline: Sunday 24 March\, 11:59pm*. \nThe world is full of misinformation\, misdirection and outright lies. There is a lot of genuinely useful knowledge out there\, but in a world of information overload it can be almost impossible to separate that knowledge from nonsense. In this session\, we will discuss misinformation\, both online and in the broader world. Who produces this misinformation and why? What are their strategies for fooling us? And why are we more easily fooled than we might want to admit? \nIn this interactive\, university-lecture style Masterclass\, we will also look at strategies for identifying and avoiding nonsense in our pursuit of genuine knowledge. In doing so\, we will consider questions such as: \n\nWhen should we rely on common sense and when should it be avoided?\nHow do governments use statistics to mislead us?\nDo your parents really know what they’re talking about?\nAnd (perhaps most importantly) can you really trust university rankings?\n\n\nThis event is suitable for: Year 12. \nHow to book a place: *Deadline: Sunday 24 March\, 11:59pm.*\nEligibility: All eligible applicants who meet at least one of the shortlisting criteria specified in points 2 to 6 on the Who we work with webpage will be offered a place on this programme. \nFor further details and how to apply\, please click here. \n\nRecording your attendance on the RO student hub: Please email the UCL RO Team at srs.realisingopportunities@ucl.ac.uk after the event to confirm your attendance.
