In this age of cyber information, anyone can publish information on whatever topic he/she chooses. How are students to know what is valid and useful information and what is not? Additionally, plagiarism and copyright infringement are of major concern to educators. Students should be taught to respect the intellectual property rights of others and to document resources gleaned from the Web.
This workshop will help you to help your students structure their research, sift through and evaluate resources to get the most useful information to meet their needs, and to give credit where credit is due.
To earn salary point credit for this course requires 16 hours of in-seat time and creation of a directed research project to teach your students basic information literacy skills of the 21st Century.
On the mark - Get set - GO!
