About this workshop:

Evaluating Online Sources for College Research is a newly-developed library workshop which discusses some of the issues that students face when using Google and Wikipedia to conduct their research. By introducing fact-checking methods ("SIFT" and lateral reading), students will learn how to check online sources for reliability and credibility.   

What to expect:

This hour-long workshop contains a librarian-led lecture, with a student quiz and website evaluation at the end. Completion of the quiz is required to receive credit for attending the workshop (a digital badge will be sent to you, which will act as a certificate of completion).
