LIBM-6110: News, Media and Information Literacy for Learners in the Digital Age

While today’s learners are often referred to as digital natives, our complex information landscape requires all educators to be skilled at helping them become digital detectives. In addition to evaluating a variety of traditional news/information literacy protocols, in this course k-12 teachers and librarians will learn to understand the inextricable link between Information Literacy and Social Emotional Learning (SEL), the ways that mobile technologies affect our ability to parse credibility, and the intricacies of the click-driven economy that drives the spread of mis-, dis-, and mal-information. With a focus on instructional design, this course will prepare educators for the task of creating learning opportunities for children that will help them navigate our information rich (but sometimes fact poor) world.
