This lesson plan uses Kevin Seeber's process cards and our newly created set of process cards that focus on news sources. In the activities using the process cards, our students were able to define and contextualize different types of information resources, including news sources. The tranfer and apply assessment used to close the session provides an opportunity for the students to think about how they would integrate these types of information into coursework, the workplace, and their personal lives.

Discovery tools are great at revealing the variety of sources available to researchers. This one-shot lesson plan makes use of discovery platform facets and features to show students the range of content available. Students will also explore and evaluate how the available information sources differ from each other. The lesson may be more appropriate for upper-level students who have database experience and a basic understanding of what research looks like within their disciplines.

Criteria for evaluating authority are discussed, as is the idea that not all voices are represented in authoritative conversations.
