How to Teach About Controversial Topics in the Face of "Fake News" and Alternative Facts:  What "Counts" as Evidence? - CUTLA Workshop

Thursday, November 9, 2:30pm - 3:30pm @ CUTLA Conference Room, Building 53, Room 201A 

Faculty and librarians have been combating the use of fast, easy, and dubious information sources since the advent of Wikipedia. Social media and other electronic platforms now disseminate "truthy" information from news outlets, media celebrities, and political actors as equally valid sources. Facilitators will discuss practical tactics for discussing the validity of information sources and countering opinions that may be at odds with logic or reality.

This workshop will be led by librarian Jane Daugherty.  

Register using CUTLA's online registration form.
