Critical Thinking Bootcamp 2022

Sharing skills, tools, and resources for librarians and faculty to combat misinformation in the face of constantly changing technology

As AI becomes smarter and more deeply embedded in how we access information and algorithms increasingly dictate what information we consume, how can we train students to spot and respond to misinformation? And what ethical considerations do we need to think through along the way?  

SAGE Publishing’s Third Annual Critical Thinking Bootcamp (9AM-12PM PST / 12PM-3PM EST) offers insights, guidance, and resources to help librarians, professors, and other staff encourage critical thinking in and out of the classroom. Join our free, virtual sessions to find ways to recognize and address the impact of tech trends on our media ecosystem and learn tactics that can be used to educate students. 

Experienced librarians and social and behavioral scientists will speak on:  

  • Why Algorithms Matter: Algorithm Literacy for Search, Research, & Bias Awareness” 

  • The Rise of AI: Challenges and Opportunities” 

  • Technology & Ethics: Practicing & Teaching Technoethics” 

Featured speakers: Nicole A. Cooke, Alexis Bonnell, Dan Chibnall, Renée DiResta, Brooklyne Gipson, Mata Haggis-Burridge, Sarah Morris, and Rosalind Tedford.

Ample time for discussion, Q&A, and networking will also be provided and attendees will leave with practical tips to apply, questions to consider, and a comprehensive toolkit of resources to utilize. The recording, slides, and toolkit will be distributed to all registrants.
