Journalism, 'Fake News' and Disinformation: A Handbook for Journalism Education and Training
Rating
0.0 stars

This new publication by UNESCO is a timely resource and highly topical subject for all those who practice or teach journalism in this Digital Age. UNESCO's new handbook is an essential addition to teaching syllabi for all journalism educators, as well as practising journalists and editors who are interested in information, how we share it and how we use it. It is mission critical that those who practice journalism understand and report on the new threats to trusted information. Political parties, health professionals, business people, scientists, election monitors and others will also find the handbook useful in navigating the information disorder. Written by experts in the fight against disinformation, this handbook explores the very nature of journalism - with modules on why trust matters; thinking critically about how digital technology and social platforms are conduits of the information disorder; fighting back against disinformation and misinformation through media and information literacy; fact-checking 101; social media verification and combating online abuse. The seven individual modules are available online to download that enables readers to develop their own course relevant to their media environment.
This handbook is also useful for the library and information science professionals, students, and LIS educators for understanding the different dimensions of fake news and disinformation.

The Open Literatures Project – Resources for Literature Faculty at Kingsborough and Beyond
Rating
0.0 stars

This is a grant-funded site for teaching literature courses participating in the larger OER (open educational resource) movement going on in academia. CUNY’s OER grants allow faculty to build teaching resources that are shareable–only materials that are not restricted by copyright–in a community-centered approach to teaching. Faculty can share their lesson plans, syllabi, readings, and other materials with one another. This allows us to find out what works best and then make it available to everyone. The best part of using open educational resources may be that it allows faculty to offer zero-cost courses for students. We don’t need to ask our students to buy expensive anthologies or textbooks, and in making use of OER sites, libguides, and other resources with huge collections, we can do so without limiting our choices of readings.

Rating
0.0 stars

This is an advanced inter and trans-disciplinary course which has two main objectives. The first is to demonstrate applied research and methodology, through social-historical analysis, to pressing and relevant phenomena of inquiry in Puerto Rican and LatinX Studies. The course is heavily focused on examining pertinent issues as it exists within Puerto Rican and LatinX communities in the United States and in Puerto Rico. Students will engage critical and contextualized analyses within the multi-faceted realities of LatinX population in the United States. The course also seeks to demonstrate the cross-analytical understanding of the various frameworks that can be employed to conduct social analysis (i.e.,, literary, social-historical, and cultural) although the central lens of the course is its social-historical variant.
