Description
This project won third place in the 2022 Signature Course Information Literacy Award. The award recognizes exemplary student work that achieves the learning outcomes of the Signature Course information literacy requirement, that students will be able to create and execute a research strategy, critically evaluate information, and navigate the scholarly conversation. This paper was nominated by Dr. Jacqueline Woolley and completed in her UGS 302 class Why We Believe Weird Things. Dr. Woolley said of Hanson’s paper “I selected this particular paper...because [it] was fascinating and included a wide range of information on the topic – homeopathy. Much to the chagrin of his peer reviewer, his paper was about twice as long as it was supposed to be, but it so wonderfully reflects his boundless enthusiasm about the topic that I didn’t mind. In addition, he used a varied selection of ...sources ..., including scientific web sites, government research organization web sites, databases, and empirical articles in medical journals.” The award judges were impressed by his ability to choose and synthesize sources on such a difficult topic.
