CORE 114 - Digital and Information Literacy

(3 credits)

The Digital and Information Literacy Seminar is a foundation course for the General Education Program at Saint Francis University and is intended for students enrolled in FWW online programs. The purpose of this course is to provide students with the opportunity to explore an issue or topic in a format that places a premium on active rather than passive learning and to educate them explicitly in the topics of Information and Digital Literacy. Each section of CORE 114 is centered on a topic of special significance that students and professors explore in depth. Topics and instructors may vary each semester, but every seminar is interdisciplinary in nature, addresses ethical and value issues, and emphasizes effective communication. The conversations in CORE 114 help students to develop the academic and research skills required for success in higher education. This course is for FWW students only. As needed.
