Join Bettina Fabos, co-author of Media and Culture, 13th Edition, for a webinar where she talks about teaching students to critically read manipulated images, from photo retouching to digital deep fakes.

Learning is a communicative process, but all too often the curriculum--from the learning outcomes and syllabus to textbooks and assessments--focuses on the delivery of decontextualized information, instead of fostering a rich intercultural exchange. In this webinar, communication professor Liz Martin (Palm Beach State College) shows how instructors can make the curriculum come alive for students by situating it within their network of relationships--interpersonal, professional, and cultural--to create diverse, inclusive, and engaging educational experiences.
