Personal profile
About
Pedagogical Interests:
My work with students and faculty focuses on critical information literacy, media literacy, and digital literacy, specifically questioning trustworthiness, what makes authority, and what voices and experiences are included and excluded in the traditional and new publishing media. I often focus also on the social nature of information and the critical research issues inherent in algorithms.
