ACRL Online Course:
Critical Information Literacy Instruction in an Age of Misinformation
-
Dates:
May 2-27, 2022
-
Cost:
ACRL Member $135.85 | ALA Member: $188.10 | Nonmember: $209.00
-
Description:
This four-week course will consider what information literacy instruction can be in a world increasingly beset by misinformation and disinformation, with a particular
focus on ways to take a more holistic approach to information literacy instruction by integrating critical information literacy, metaliteracy, and mindfulness into our pedagogical work. Critical information literacy, with its focus on the context in which
information is produced and disseminated, metaliteracy, with its focus on empowering individuals to consider their own unique role in an information ecosystem, and mindfulness, with its focus on self-reflection and self-awareness, can all be incredibly powerful
ways to gain a deeper understanding into how misinformation functions.

in pairs, or in groups.
