Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning
CETL Teaching Workshop
Providing an opportunity for faculty, graduate students, and professional staff to gather with colleagues to listen, discuss, comment, interact and reflect on a variety of topics to enhance teaching and learning.
The Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning offers the following teaching workshop:
Information Literacy in the Age of Alt-Facts and Fake News
Lisa Blansett, English, and Donovan Reinwald, Library
While students who take First-Year Writing classes receive basic Information Literacy training, the needed skills evolve as they enter their majors and confront more complex real-world problems. How will you help your students make good choices in sources and guide them toward more critical reading when even the substance of fact is challenged and competing truths are purveyed? We will workshop classroom activities and assignments with participants so that you may take custom-tailored work to share with your students.
