dc.description | The University of Kansas Libraries’ staff utilized the “Authority is Constructed and Contextual” frame from ACRL Framework for Information Literacy in Higher Education to develop a three-day information literacy unit that is integrated into the university’s first-year experience courses. Day one of the unit consists of an information cycle activity where each student analyzes a different source type. Day two requires students to bring in sources on an assigned topic. Students participate in a discussion on authority as a criteria for evaluating sources in both academic and non-academic contexts and discuss the value of the sources they’ve found. Day three consists of an active-learning game where students practice evaluating sources for markers of authority in scenarios with both academic and non-academic information needs. Finally, the unit ends with an exam that requires students to apply what they learned throughout the unit to a new situation. Project files for the game referenced in Section 2 of the manual are available via KU ScholarWorks at https://hdl.handle.net/1808/21508. | |
