The library’s new series of faculty workshops on information literacy continues this month. If you heard about
last month’s workshop (or even if you didn’t) but were unable to participate, please consider registering for either or both of the March workshops. Here are the details:
Revising your (low-stakes) assignment | register
March 18, 1pm-2pm | Participants are encouraged to bring a research-based assignment or class activity that they wish to revise to get more consistent results with students’ research efforts. The goal will be to update an assignment or classroom activity to clarify expectations about its research component and improve research results.
Please register by March 17 on Zoom. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. Participants are encouraged to bring questions and examples to the workshop.
Part-time faculty who participate will be
 compensated at their hourly non-teaching adjunct rate for attending.
March 24, 3pm-4pm | We routinely encounter misinformation and disinformation when we’re online, and even if we identify it, we don’t always have the capacity to find credible sources of information. Participants will learn and practice the techniques that professional fact-checkers use to evaluate information and find reliable sources. Together we will generate ideas about using these strategies in class or in written assignments. Please register on Zoom by March 23. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. Participants are encouraged to bring questions and examples to the workshop.
