Webinar: Navigating Information Literacy in the Age of AI
Are students’ information literacy (IL) skills up to the task of dealing with an AI world? Student researchers are increasingly relying on AI research tools. How can instructors and librarians teach foundational research skills and encourage students to use AI only in conjunction with IL principles?
Hear Infobase product directors Jeff Soloway and Sharon Golan discuss how to use common library resources, such as Credo Reference and other databases, as well as instructional tools such as Infobase’s Artificial Intelligence Streaming Video Collection and Information Literacy – Core to reinforce these crucial skills.
In this webinar we discuss:
- How to inform students of how AI searches really work.
- How to use high-quality research databases to encourage students to identify their own search terms and chart their own research paths, rather than relying only on behind-the-scenes AI searches.
- How to use Infobase’s instructional videos to instill best practices in research if students choose to use AI.
