Information Literacy Credential

Issued by Salt Lake Community College

Earners of the Information Literacy badge will be able to connect the principals and threshold concepts of information literacy to their disciplines, and therefore, to their programs, courses, and assignments. These candidates will put these connections into practice by redesigning an assignment, course module, or lecture to incorporate these concepts; or by reconfiguring a course or program to more accurately reflect the standards of information literacy which are germane to their discipline.
