Continuing the 2018
LOEX conference theme, there is
not a presentation uploaded for one of the sessions:
Librarians to Battle Stations: Cognitive Dissonance and Information Literacy in the Fake News Era by Maoria J. Kirker (Instruction & Assessment Coordinator) @ George Mason University and Ilana Stonebraker (Assistant Professor of Library Science, Business Information Specialist) @ Purdue University.
However, they have made available a "a crowdsourced list of tips, strategies, and best practices for confronting cognitive dissonance in the IL context" created by the participants. This document is view only, but if you want to add something, let the authors know (mkirker@gmu.edu)

The description of the session said "Cognitive dissonance is the state of having inconsistent thoughts, beliefs, or attitudes, especially as relating to behavioral decisions and attitude change. This presentation will discuss how cognitive dissonance, information literacy and fake news concepts are related and applied within the library classroom."
