Description
One important facet of critical thinking is the ability to not only locate high-quality information sources, but also to analyze, evaluate, and use them. Implicit in these abilities are asking good research questions and understanding the differences between various information source types. To continue helping faculty teach these skills and students learn them, University Libraries published an open-access ebook called Choosing & Using Sources: A Guide to Academic Research. This presentation will provide a hands-on introduction to the ebook, as well as give participants experience in quickly customizing relevant learning activities for their own disciplines to meet the needs of students in their own courses.
