Critical Lens: Helping Students Make Sense of Evolving Information Resources

10/15/15

Contributed by Wade Pickren

Tuesday, October 20, 12:10- 1:00 pm, 319 Gannett Center
Facilitators: Lisabeth Chabot, College Librarian, Laura Kuo, Health Sciences Librarian

In a world of information overload, how do students develop a discriminating lens for evaluating resources based on the information need and the context in which the information will be used? In this session, the facilitators will simulate a collaborative student instructional activity that advances critical thinking skills such as analysis and appraisal of information using a library developed rubric. The session will also showcase the collaborative technology available in Gannett 319.
