Deceiving and Lying with Data

June 8, 2023

8:30–11:30 a.m.

Data increasingly shapes our world.  Can you trust everything you hear or read?  Can you trust how others are using this data?  Misrepresentation and bias in data skews our perspectives and understanding of the world.  In this session we will discuss how to become more literate about data, how to evaluate what you see, and challenging the results.
