Digital Duality: The Best and Worst of the Web

You've heard it before: "The internet is a double-edged sword." But knowing that doesn't actually help you navigate it. What helps is understanding how it works — the good, the bad, and the deliberately manipulative.

Digital Duality: The Best and Worst of the Web is a deep-dive course for people who want to do more than just browse the internet — they want to use it with intention, discernment, and awareness. Across six rich sections, you'll explore how the web democratizes opportunity, how bad actors exploit human psychology, how your brain gets hijacked by bots and bias, and how to reclaim your attention and protect your data.

This isn't a course about being afraid of the internet. It's a course built to empower you to use it on your own terms.

At the end of this course you will: 
  • Understand the real benefits of the internet
  • Apply digital media literacy habits daily
  • Identify bots and AI-generated content
  • Spot echo chambers and tribal thinking in your own feed
  • Distinguish misinformation, disinformation, and malinformation
  • Recognize propaganda, clickbait & conspiracy theories
  • Defend yourself against phishing, scams & social engineering
  • Navigate the web with intention — not autopilot
