Abstract

Join Butler University librarians as we share insights on a news literacy unit that we introduced into a media literacy course. We will outline our learning objectives for the session, including a deep reading of an information source’s claims and incorporating concepts found in the Authority is Constructed and Contextual IL frame. Attendees will “test out” one of the learning activities by building a news literacy continuum – where do concepts such as disinformation, bias, mainstream media, and post-truth fit on an information spectrum? An accompanying assignment as well as data from student evaluations will also be shared.
