• Faculty want students to find and use ‘quality’ information in their disciplines
• That is, faculty want students to recognize what constitutes:– author authority – author expertise– content credibility

• How do you find ‘quality’ information?
–People who know things share their knowledge via multiple ‘channels’– You discover the knowledge of others by
exploring these ‘channels’…

Information “channels” include:
– Internet (web pages, blogs, video/audio)–Articles in magazines and newspapers–Articles in scholarly / academic journals–Books and chapters in books– Theses and dissertations–Government publications

• Information search is often a process of tapping into the stored communications of other people that flow in these channels
• These communication channels differ in the degree of prior knowledge the VIEWERS of content (students) must possess to be able to recognize quality information: Authority, Expertise, and Credibility

• Anybody can say what they want on a web page, blog, or YouTube video, irrespective of their authority, expertise or credibility
• To evaluate the quality of the content found in blogs, web videos, or web pages, VIEWERS (students) must learn to recognize and apply measures of author authority and expertise and content credibility and quality

• Articles published in what are called peer-reviewed or refereed academic/scholarly journals are examined by recognized academic experts BEFORE they are published in the journal – These expert reviewers vouch for the authority,
expertise, and credibility of article content
• It is this kind of article content that students are often asked to read and utilize in their projects

• Books published by commercial publishers are often reviewed by socially acknowledged experts before publication– Considerable vetting of authority, expertise, and
credibility has been done before the reader sees the content
• Self published books often do NOT go through any authority / expertise / credibility review before being published– It is again up to the VIEWER to use their judgment as to
the veracity / quality of the content
