Note:
 In terms of exam technique, this small difference doesn't really matter.I approach both question
types in the same way. I look for keywords, and decide whether theinformation in the question is
correct, incorrect or not given.I'll publish a video lesson about these two question types later this
week.
IELTS reading: False or not given?
Students are often confused by the difference between 'false' and 'not given'.You should choose
  false
 if the information in the passage directly contradicts the questionstatement; in other words, you
need to be able to show that a different answer would be true.Choose
not given
 only when there is no information, or not enough information.Click hereto see two example
questions. The answer to the first one is 'false', and the answerto the second is 'not given'.
Hopefully my explanations will help you to see the difference.
