information literacy project assignment 1
Information Literacy Project, Assignment #1 (5 points, due 9/10 by 11:59pm)
Our media is full of misinformation about aging. This series of assignments is intended to explore important issues related to aging and analyze non-academic and academic sources of information using the TRAAP Test. Your work will receive feedback throughout each step of the assignment. For this assignment, you will get started by identifying a topic of interest, and describing your ideas about this issue without doing any additional research. This will be your topic for all information literacy assignments throughout this semester.
Please select of one of the questions below as the focus of your assignment. You will write two subsequent papers (one on a news article, one on a peer reviewed research article) and write an integrative and reflective paper based on feedback from earlier writing. In one paragraph, please describe your current perception of the question you’ve picked and what sources of evidence you believe have informed your perceptions. Do NOT seek out any new information about this topic before writing your paragraph! You will have the chance to do that in future assignments.
Your assignment must be typed and submitted in Canvas by the due date listed above.
