So, You Hit a Paywall: Introducing Undergraduates to Information Privilege
Wednesday, October 27, 12:00 PM - 12:45 PM Eastern Time
A student who encounters a paywall often isn't aware of the complex information environment that has shaped their frustration. To help students better navigate and contextualize their information world, Cara Evanson and Meggie Lasher from Davidson College worked with four classes during spring semester 2020 to facilitate student learning of information privilege concepts. Join us as they share their lesson materials and survey data, and participate in the discussion about developing a faculty outreach plan and incorporating social justice issues into library instruction. Register for this event.
