Host:

Melda Yildiz, Ed.D., associate professor of education

Join us on Tuesday, March 1, from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m., for an interactive workshop that investigates the role of Algorithmic Bias/ Injustice integrating new technologies such as Global Positioning System (GPS) while developing global competencies, geospatial intelligence, and computational thinking skills. The workshop offers creative strategies and possibilities for eradicating myths and misconceptions in education.

During this workshop, we will engage in a wide range of media literacy activities exploring geospatial and computational thinking skills. We will also investigate alternative points of view on news, global issues, algorithmic bias, and social justice through media literacy education.
