Information has value, and if we teach our students how and why that information has value in what we teach them, we can give them the critical capacity to effectively evaluate, make use of, and even contribute to knowledge in our fields. In other words, we’re making students responsible for their own learning by involving them in creating knowledge themselves. In this workshop, we’ll not only address what kinds of open resources might serve your students, but offer strategies to engage students with those resources: ** Making students aware of the costs of developing and maintaining sources of information, and how these costs limit who has access to this information. ** Engaging students in conversations about how and why our own disciplines value particular kinds of knowledge and what that means for whose voice is heard. ** Designing assignments to give students hands-on experience with how information and knowledge are produced and disseminated, say by creating their own instructional materials to be used in your class. ** Engaging students with the principles of fair use and intellectual property, to invest them in valuing their own contribution to knowledge as well as those of others. Sign up for this workshop, which will be held on Thursday, November 16, 2017 from 10 AM-11AM, in Thompson Library 150A and 150B.
