Workshop Description

This workshop series aims to better integrate information literacy into the UNM General Education undergraduate curriculum. Each workshop focuses on unpacking one dimension from the New Mexico General Education IDL Essential Skill. In this workshop, we will focus on the concept of "information structures," and how information is produced into distinct formats that are created for a purpose as well as how that information is organized in systems. 

Participants will commit four hours; two-hours of synchronous plus two-hours of asynchronous training.

See the attached announcement for more details.
