Could digital humanities to undergraduates could boost information literacy? | Inside Higher Ed - 0 views
-
it is incumbent on humanities instructors to teach undergraduates how to read websites and digital discovery tools with the same critical vigilance with which they are taught to read textual arguments
-
research has shown that most members of the “born digital” generation do not know how those tools work
-
the point is to spur students to “think critically and differently” about digital gateways and to “encourage new forms of close reading, knowledge production and interpretation” in the context of the modern information landscape
