Information and digital literacy impacts the decision-making process in multiple ways from academic research to personal interest. More than ever before, information is at our fingertips and coming at us with lightning speed. How do we sift and use this information (CO1)? Step 4 of the Big 6 model relates to our use of information and the process of engaging and extracting relevant information. Next, Step 5 of the Big 6 approach focuses on synthesis of information (CO8).
Find an article online about health and wellness, buying a car, hobbies, or planning for a vacation. Read the article and consider the following:
How will you synthesize and present the content of the article to share?
What do you want the class to know and what do they need to know?
How will you share the information so that the content is clear and concise?
This is an opportunity for you to practice use of information and synthesis as you share with one another your own knowledge combined with a supporting source.
