Great work, Lynnee, Cas, and Adam! They led a collaboration with Student Leadership and Engagement to offer two civic information literacy workshops. They developed hands-on activities and instruction that helped students navigate and evaluate information about their local elections. They gave students the option to do traditional searching or use AI chatbots, and led a comparison of the results, encouraging students to think critically about the information they encounter from any source. The workshops were well attended and students were very engaged. Students expressed gratitude for the guidance and time to explore. This was a great idea that was executed very well and can be a model for topical information literacy workshops going forward.
