Digital Literacy, the Post-Truth Landscape, and Civic Online Reasoning
Every day we ask our students to find information on any number of topics. Every day we Google information in our own lives. But particularly online it is becoming more and more difficult to determine fact from misinformation, news from slant, expertise from opinion. Librarian Jenny Fielding will discuss strategies for engaging with digital information with a fact-checking mindset that has become more ever more urgent as technology impacts our communities, our privacy, and our democracy.
February 26, 2020, 12:30-1:25 PM, C204. If you want to join by Zoom, please indicate it in the Questions and Comment box below.

Join NECC Adjunct Kim Lyng as she shares her research on the unique characteristics these nontraditional students bring to the online environment and why their stories and experiences matter when creating and teaching courses that best suit their needs and learning styles.
