Researching hot button issues can be like walking on a minefield. There’s so much written on thorny topics like same-sex marriage, gun control, racial inequality, and more. But relying on biased or uncredible sources can trip you up. We’ll talk about ways to find and evaluate quality sources on controversial topics—and how to keep opinion, emotion, and bias (especially your own) in check.
This webinar requires advance registration. Please sign up at Registration for Hot Button Issues Webinar. Those students who attend and complete three seminars or webinars will be awarded a Certificate of Achievement in Information Literacy.
