Description
What does it mean for your students to be “wicked?” In Creating Wicked Students, Paul Hanstedt describes wicked students as those who have a sense of authority and believe that they are capable of addressing messy and evolving problems which have no clear solutions. This workshop will consider how we can teach information literacy to our students to support them in becoming “wicked” graduates who are capable of navigating our complex information landscape. Inspired by Hanstedt’s book on the subject, presenters will share wicked ideas on writing course goals, designing assignments, and constructing class activities that challenge students to learn and apply information literacy.

This workshop is open to all faculty, instructors, graduate teaching associates and staff at Ohio State. This event will take place on Thursday, November 3 from noon until 1 p.m. via Zoom.
