The university library has designed a course in Canvas on academic information literacy. It consists of three modules. Every module consists of text, images and/or videos, as well as quizzes. The three modules are:
- The search for information
A basic overview of the different components of the information search process:
planning a search question, choosing search terms, and using some basic
search strategies.
- Evaluate and criticise
What does it mean to be critical towards your sources in
an academic context? We go over different types of scholarly
material and how to evaluate, for example, a journal article.
- The academic text
A short introduction to academic language and how to disposition an academic text,
basic information on plagiarism, copyright, and Creative Commons. As well as an
overview on referencing, of course.
