Teaching Students to Evaluate Web Sites

Leaders:  Elizabeth Campbell, Lettres françaises/Canadian Studies
Erin McCarthy, Philosophy

More and more students are incorporating information they find on the Web into their class assignments without evaluating the credibility of the site. Working directly from a bilingual Web site we have created, this interactive session will provide participants with the necessary tools to critically evaluate Web sites. First offered successfully at this year’s annual Society for Teaching and Learning in Higher Education (STLHE) conference at Mount Allison University, this workshop will enable participants to aid their students in determining the reliability of research found on the Web.
(Presentation in English. Discussion bilingue.)
