What clues would you look for?

Can you tell what’s real—and what was made by AI?

This one-day program is designed to help students become thoughtful, responsible decision-makers in an information environment increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence, social media, and rapidly changing digital content.
Rather than a coding class, the Forum is an interactive learning experience centered on AI and media literacy, critical thinking, investigation, discussion, and evidence-based judgment.

AI Media Forensics Lab: DETECT → ANALYZE → JUDGE

DETECT — Identify AI-generated and manipulated media and recognize signals that deserve closer examination.

ANALYZE — Investigate misinformation, bias, cultural representation, and the ways digital content can shape what people believe.

JUDGE — Use evidence and critical thinking to decide what to trust, what to question, and what is responsible to share.
Students will work with university faculty, college student mentors, educators, and other high school students as they examine real-world questions about AI-generated content, misinformation, credibility, and responsible media use.
