Brian Hooten’s Profile
My Courses
This course explores research and documentation for all media formats including text, images, sound, and multimedia. Students will explore information issues, especially in terms of their relevance today: how information is produced and organized in both traditional and emerging media, how information access is affected by political, economic and cultural factors, and the ethics of information use. Students will also acquire the practical skills of locating information sources in a variety of media and formats, critical evaluation of sources, and documentation and citation of traditional and emerging media and technologies. Students will apply what they learn to create and present research and documentation projects.
My Projects
How to Make Well Informed Decisions at the Supermarket
Consumers are presented with a dizzying variety of product descriptions in the supermarket. What do words like “organic,” “all-natural,” and “antibiotic-free” actually mean? We propose an online resource discussing the most common terms seen on products to help consumers make better informed decisions at the checkout counter.
