Abstract: [Slides from a webinar presentation given for InfoBase.] Chances are, you already engage in lateral reading in your own information evaluation practice, and your learners might as well! Lateral reading is a powerful approach to source evaluation that involves leaving an information source to learn more about it before engaging with the source itself. In this first session of a two-part workshop, you’ll learn more about what lateral reading is, what the research says about how and why it works, and how it can be used to supplement or even reframe typical approaches to source evaluation.
