Librarians and faculty members offer perspectives, workshop initiatives, and classroom strategies to assist readers in increasing news literacy on their campus. We are living in a time when the evolving media ecosystem requires individuals to pay critical attention to content, developing ways to make sense of information, data, news reports, and research. Undergraduate college student learners in all disciplines must possess skills to critically identify, assess, and challenge the ideas to which they're being exposed. Both librarians and faculty know this, but they may not know how to develop and implement information literacy material. In this valuable collection, reference librarians, instructional librarians, and undergraduate faculty across disciplines share best practices for establishing relationships with each other and for increasing students' news and information literacy skills. Contributions include perspectives on pedagogy, reflections on successes and challenges, and reports of research on student learning. This book teaches librarians and faculty how to implement news and information literacy content across the curriculum to empower students to be smarter, more critical, and more engaged news consumers.

At a time when misinformation in the media is abundant, this book explains the difficulty in nurturing students to become critical researchers and offers practical lessons that empower students to excavate information that will help them learn. This guide to teaching news literacy explores a wealth of resources and classroom-tested lessons that educators in grades 7–12 can use in their own libraries and classrooms. To introduce the concept of news literacy, the authors explain the steps of the inquiry and research process in detail and examine the Stanford History Education Group (SHEG) 2016 report "Evaluating Information: The Cornerstone of Civic Online Reasoning" and related research studies. Lesson plans corresponding to each stage of the process are coordinated to relevant standards from the CCSS and ISTE and are accompanied by rubrics for providing students feedback on their progress as well as samples of student work as it evolved through the stages. Furthermore, the authors' anecdotal insights from their experiences in collaboratively implementing the lessons with colleagues are an invaluable addition for any librarian seeking to work with teachers to help students become critical researchers.

We live in a data-driven world, much of it processed and served up by increasingly complex algorithms, and evaluating its quality requires its own skillset. As a component of information literacy, it's crucial that students learn how to think critically about statistics, data, and related visualizations. Here, Bauder and her fellow contributors show how librarians are helping students to access, interpret, critically assess, manage, handle, and ethically use data. Offering readers a roadmap for effectively teaching data literacy at the undergraduate level, this volume explores such topics as the potential for large-scale library/faculty partnerships to incorporate data literacy instruction across the undergraduate curriculum; how the principles of the ACRL Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education can help to situate data literacy within a broader information literacy context; a report on the expectations of classroom faculty concerning their students’ data literacy skills; various ways that librarians can partner with faculty; case studies of two initiatives spearheaded by Purdue University Libraries and University of Houston Libraries that support faculty as they integrate more work with data into their courses; Barnard College’s Empirical Reasoning Center, which provides workshops and walk-in consultations to more than a thousand students annually; how a one-shot session using the PolicyMap data mapping tool can be used to teach students from many different disciplines; diving into quantitative data to determine the truth or falsity of potential “fake news” claims; and a for-credit, librarian-taught course on information dissemination and the ethical use of information.
