I am really looking forward to this term, to teaching “Information Gathering,” a new class for me. It’s essentially a course in investigative journalism. The course description:

The information used to develop communications materials comes from many sources. Students research and evaluate information from print and electronic records, databases, and interviews. They examine issues relating to how information is gathered, stored, retrieved, and disseminated. Students enhance their creative and critical thinking skills through finding and evaluating information.

Right down my alley!

I am grateful for the opportunities University Canada West has given me.
